When women suffer from cholecystitis, it may be related to gallstones, infection, gallbladder ischemia, and impaired emptying of the gallbladder.
1. Gallbladder stones: Patients with gallbladder stones are prone to stone impaction and obstruction, which in turn leads to bacterial infection of intestinal origin. Bacteria enter the gallbladder through the blood or lymphatic route, inducing the onset of cholecystitis.
2. Infection: Ascaris lumbricoides, flagellates, viruses and other pathogenic microbial infections are also common clinical causes of cholecystitis in women.
3. Gallbladder ischemia: severe trauma, shock, gallbladder wall vasculopathy can lead to ischemia of the gallbladder mucosa, which in turn leads to the infiltration of chronic inflammatory cells, which can lead to the development of cholecystitis.
4. Obstructed emptying of the gallbladder: Obstructed emptying of the gallbladder can lead to a large amount of bile stagnation in the gallbladder. The increased size of the gallbladder can lead to fibrosis of the gallbladder wall and chronic inflammatory cell infiltration.
There may be other causes of cholecystitis in women, so it is recommended to go to the hospital as soon as possible and cooperate with the doctor to receive treatment.
