Modern sonography has led to an increased appraisal of the therapeutic consequences in cases of polypoid lesions of the gallbladder wall. In 30 patients it was attempted to differentiate between cholesterol polyps and polypoid lesions suspect for malignancy. Histologic results and data in the literature induce us to recommend cholecystectomy in solitary lesions of more than 5 mm, combined occurrence with gallstones and in patients beyond the 60th year of life.
