    Gallstones in young children, known as biliary lithiasis, are increasingly common. This case highlights a rare instance in a 22-month-old with associated cataracts and neurological issues.

    Area of Science:

    • Pediatric Gastroenterology
    • Ophthalmology
    • Neurology

    Context:

    • A 22-month-old female presented with biliary lithiasis.
    • Diagnosis was confirmed pre-operatively via endovenous cholangiography.
    • The patient also exhibited cataracts and neurological impairment.

    Purpose:

    • To report a rare case of pediatric biliary lithiasis.
    • To discuss the associated congenital anomalies.
    • To review current etiopathogenic theories for gallstone formation.

    Summary:

    • The case involves a young child with gallstones, cataracts, and neurological deficits.
    • Endovenous cholangiography was instrumental in pre-surgical diagnosis.
    • The authors emphasize the rising incidence of gallstones in pediatric populations.
