Biliary colic is caused by an increased pressure within the gallbladder lumen due to gallbladder contraction against an impacted stone in the cystic duct. It should be possible to prevent the passage of stones into the cystic duct by avoiding those body positions (mostly the supine position) in which the neck of the gallbladder is located in the downward position.

Abstract

Biliary colic is caused by an increased pressure within the gallbladder lumen due to gallbladder contraction against an impacted stone in the cystic duct. It should be possible to prevent the passage of stones into the cystic duct by avoiding those body positions (mostly the supine position) in which the neck of the gallbladder is located in the downward position.
