Abstract

No abstract available. Article truncated after 150 words. Clinical Scenario: A 47-year-old lady with a past medical history of hypertension, DVT on Xarelto, and methamphetamine use presented with a 3-day history of progressive right upper quadrant pain. Physical examination demonstrated marked right upper quadrant tenderness with palpation and significant rebound tenderness. A CT of the abdomen and pelvis without intravenous contrast demonstrated findings consistent with acute calculus cholecystitis with evidence of perforation and a pericholecystic abscess. The patient was taken emergently to the operating room where she underwent an open cholecystectomy which demonstrated perforated gangrenous cholecystitis with a large abscess in the gallbladder fossa. She was admitted to the ICU post-operatively due septic shock and did well with fluid resuscitation and antibiotic administration. Discussion: Acute cholecystitis is the most common acute complication of cholelithiasis and accounts for 3-9% of hospital admissions for acute abdominal pain. Eight to 95% of cases of acute cholecystitis are the result of a …
