Objectives:
Cholelithiasis or gallstones has many risk factors, such as age, sex, obesity, dyslipidemia, and diabetes mellitus (DM). Studies in developing country shown that obesity, dyslipidemia, and DM occurred in 55.0%, 76.0%, and 17.7% of adults with cholelithiasis, respectively. The aim of this study is to know the proportion of cholelithiasis risk factors.

Materials & methods:
This retrospective study using descriptive cross sectional design performed in one of the largest referral hospital in Jakarta Indonesia. Demographic data, and laboratory examination were collected from medical record. Patients presented with cholelithiasis from the abdominal ultrasonography was enrolled into study.

Results:
93 subjects were selected through consecutive sampling, where in 65.8% were female and 77.5% age>40 years. The majority was obese (47.3%) and the obesity grade I was most prevalent. Dyslipidemia was found in 19.3% subjects with proportion of high total cholesterol was 54.5%, high LDL 90.9%, high triglycerides 27.3%, and low HDL 18.2%. DM was found in 15.0% subjects. Random blood glucose had higher proportion, accounting 57.2% with mean 140.67± 89.69 mg/dl. Female and age>40 years had more proportion in cholelithiasis patients.

Conclusions:
Proportion of cholelithiasis with obesity 47.3%, dyslipidemia 19.3%, and diabetes 15.0%. However, the proportion of obesity, dyslipidemia and diabetes in this study was lower than other studies in Asia or developing countries. Patients with obesity grade I, high LDL and RBG>40 mg/dl should be aware to have cholelithiasis.
