Gallstones are hardened, concentrated pieces of bile that form in your gallbladder or bile ducts. “Gall” means bile, so gallstones are bile stones. Your gallbladder is your bile bladder. It holds and stores bile for later use. Your liver makes bile, and your bile ducts carry it to the different organs in your biliary tract.

The condition of gallstones is sometimes referred to by medical professionals as “cholelithiasis.” “Litiasis” denotes the formation of stones, while “chole” also indicates bile. Bile sediment builds up and crystallizes to produce gallstones. The sediment is frequently an overabundance of one of the primary components of bile.
