ABSTRACT
A total of 134 patients with biliary tract disease were studied. Of these 94 patients were operated in Karachi (Pakistan) and 40 at Aylesbury (England). The age and sex incidence, clinical features and laboratory investigations were studied and compared in the two groups. It is concluded that biliary tract disease occurs at a much younger age in women of child bearing age in Karachi. The incidence of common bile duct stones appears to be low. Carcinoma of the Gall-bladder was recorded in 6.3 per cent in Karachi group.
