Gallbladder neuron count in cholelithiasis patients with and without Chagas disease Contagem de neurônios da vesícula biliar de pacientes chagásicos e não chagásicos portadores de colelitíase

Various investigators agree that the incidence of cholelithiasis is greater in patients with Chagas disease. The most plausible explanation for this is based on the parasympathetic denervation that occurs over the whole digestive tract due to Chagas disease. In order to analyze the occurrence of thi...
