Acute cholecystitis is related to gallstones in about 90% to 95% of cases and chronic cholecystitis is also almost always associated with the presence of gallstones. The ability to detect gallstones by CT is approximately 75%, due to the gallstones isodense to bile.
Acute cholecystitis, the commonest complication of cholelithiasis, is a chemical inflammation usually requiring cystic duct obstruction and supersaturated bile. The treatment of this condition in the laparoscopic era is controversial.
K81. 1 - Chronic cholecystitis | ICD-10-CM.

In most cases, gallstones blocking the tube leading out of your gallbladder cause cholecystitis. This results in a bile buildup that can cause inflammation. Other causes of cholecystitis include bile duct problems, tumors, serious illness and certain infections.
What causes cholecystitis? Cholecystitis happens when a digestive juice called bile gets trapped in your gallbladder. In most cases, this happens because lumps of solid material (gallstones) are blocking a tube that drains bile from the gallbladder. When gallstones block this tube, bile builds up in your gallbladder.
Chronic cholecystitis The upper abdomen above the gallbladder is tender to the touch. In contrast to acute cholecystitis, fever rarely occurs in people with chronic cholecystitis. The pain is less severe than the pain of acute cholecystitis and does not last as long.
