319 stones found in gallbladder

Doctors found 319 stones in the gallbladder of a 69-year-old woman, surnamed Yu, after an operation to remove the organ. Yu recently sought medical advice after experiencing persistent stomachache, with an examination revealing the stones in her gallbladder. Doctors said the large number of stones was due to her unhealthy diet, including drinking large amounts of strong tea and eating salty food.
