CONCLUSION \\e have assumed that the cases of round-celled infiltration in the sub-mucosa and muscularis may be due to a lym])hangitis secondary to liverlesions, while the strawberry gall-bladder type may be the precursor of stone 618 CHRONIC CHOLECYSTITIS WITHOUT STONE and may be primarily due to infection through the lumen of the is possible that these two pathological types may be
