Chronic atrophic cholecystitis may be caused by bacterial infection, gallstones, metabolic abnormalities and other factors.
1. Bacterial infection of the gallbladder
causes inflammation in the gallbladder, which may damage the gallbladder wall and gradually cause fibrosis, and eventually lead to gallbladder atrophy.
2.
Gallstones occur in the gallbladder, causing bile to remain in the gallbladder and not be discharged in time, causing inflammation and stimulating the gallbladder wall, causing chronic atrophic cholecystitis.
3.
Bile acid metabolism disorders in patients with metabolic abnormalities cause the gallbladder to be continuously stimulated by bile salts, which can cause chronic atrophic cholecystitis.
