    This study reports two cases of cholesterinic cholelithiasis, a rare condition of cholesterol gallstones, in children. The findings highlight the importance of considering this diagnosis in pediatric patients with gallstones.

    Area of Science:

    • Pediatric Gastroenterology
    • Hepatology
    • Biliary System Diseases

    Background:

    • Cholesterinic cholelithiasis, characterized by cholesterol gallstones, is uncommon in pediatric populations.
    • Gallstone formation in children requires specific etiological considerations compared to adults.

    Observation:

    • Two pediatric cases of cholesterinic cholelithiasis were identified and analyzed.
    • Clinical presentations and diagnostic pathways for these cases were documented.

    Findings:

    • The review of literature indicates a paucity of reported pediatric cases of cholesterinic cholelithiasis.
    • These cases contribute to the limited existing data on cholesterol gallstones in children.

    Implications:

  • Increased awareness of cholesterinic cholelithiasis in pediatric patients is warranted.
  • Further research into the risk factors and management of pediatric gallstones is necessary.
