Coll,gallstone disease is relatively rare in children....but as you know now..it can happen.. When gallstones occur in this age group they are more likely to be pigment stones.Pigment stones are composed of calcium bilirubinate, or calcified bilirubin. Pigment stones can be black or brown.

Hugs, Janet
