Limy bile is a rare condition characterized by excessive precipitation of calcium carbonate in the gallbladder. It has been known a cause of cholecystitis. Churchman firtst reported a case of curious deposition of calcium salts within the gallbladder in 1911. The etiology of limy bile is unclear. Recently we experienced a 32-year-old woman who had a limy bile in the gallbladder, right hepatic duct, common hepatic duct with multiple gallbladder stones and common bile duct stone. We report this case with a review of literature.(Korean J Med 70:701-705, 2006) Key Words : Limy bile, Gallbladder stone, Common bile duct stone
