Methods 3415citizens aged >20 in the community of Shanghai were randomly selected to undergo a clinical epidemiological study and an ultrasound examination to screen for cholelithiasis. Results Overall prevalence rate of gallstones was 6.5% (8.6% in women and 5.1% in men). Among the 3415 persons investigated, 65 had already undergone cholecystectomy. The percentage of asymptomatic gallstone was 70 .5% . Prevalence of gallstone diseases (gallstones plus cholecystectomy) increased with age significantly. Conclusion Compared to the research in Shanghai ten years ago, especially for the persons older than 50 years, the gallstone disease has become more frequent. The proportion of asymptomatic gallstones and the awareness is increasing.
