My great great grandad died in 1910. This is on his death certificate. Can you help me work out what he died of? He died early at 54.

I’m going with Suppurative Cholecystitis. Google tells me something to do with the gallbladder?

Suppurative cholangitis? I think the diagnosis goes over 2 lines. AT first thought it might be cholera, but which country did he die in?

Suppurative cholangitis, cystitis

Oh, cross posted - I reckon everyone else has got it!

Yep, definitely suppurative cholecystitis - infection of the gallbladder. Nowadays would be treated with antibiotics followed by removal of the gallbladder once the infection had settled down.
