Bacteriocolia
Definition
A pathological condition characterized by the abnormal presence or proliferation of bacteria within the bile or biliary tracts. Normally, biliary secretion is sterile, and bacteriocolia represents a major etiological factor in triggering cholecystitis and cholangitis, frequently occurring due to biliary stasis or duodenal reflux.
