   Abstract : Time trends regarding incidence, management, and outcome of acute (AC) and elective cholecystectomy (EC), as well as symptomatic (cholangitis, pancreatitis, jaundice) and asymptomatic (detected accidentally during cholecystectomy) common bile duct (CBD) stones were studied during the time period 1970-1986 in a welldefined Swedish population. From period I (1970-1978) to period II (1979-1986) there was a four-fold increase in the ratio of AC (period I: mean 10/100,000/year, period II: mean 30/100,000/year) to EC (period 1: mean 190/100,000/year, period II: mean 120/100,000/year).
