Recent international publications remark the association about carcinoma of the colon and cholelithiasis. These two entities with similar geographical distribution can be seen frequently in the modern western societies, being the cause as aetiological factors the low content in dietetics fiber. Different studies about the carcinoma of the colon and cholelithiasis pathogenesis had lead the possibility that the abnormal degradation of bile acids for the colonic bacterias, could be responsible of each one of these illness. The exposition of colonic mucosa to products of degradation of bile acids, specially secondary bile acids, may play a role in the etiopathogenic of colon carcinoma. It was analysed 135 patients with colon carcinoma or adenomatosis polyps, 42 with cholelithiasis or cholecystectomized for the same cause (31.1%), although in the control group, only 2(5%) had cholelithiasis. The female predominated the group of colon carcinoma and cholelithiasis, as well as cholecystectomized for that cause. The most frequent associated pathology was the diverticulosis.
