Cholecystitis can be caused by both modifiable and non-modifiable risk factors. Non-modifiable factors include age over 40, female sex, genetic predisposition, estrogen levels, and ethnicity. Modifiable factors are obesity, rapid weight loss, lack of physical activity, long-term total parenteral nutrition, oral contraceptives, and pregnancy. The pathophysiology involves changes in bile composition, decreased bile flow and contractility, and increased intraluminal pressure leading to bile stasis, gallbladder distension, and right upper quadrant pain.
