We report a case of a 70-year-old man with acute acalculous cholecystitis caused by Giardia lamblia. Contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CT) showed distention of the gallbladder due to a pericholecystic abscess without gallstones. Magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography and drip infusion cholecystocholangiography-CT demonstrated a stricture of the hilar bile duct and cystic duct obstruct...
BACKGROUND The incidence of mesenteric ischaemia is rising possibly due to increasing awareness and early diagnostic tools available. However it remains a challenging diagnosis especially in the elderly population. CASE REPORT We report an unusual case of acute mesenteric ischaemia in an elderly lady occurring in conjunction with acalculous cholecystitis. A 71 year old woman was referred to o...
Introduction: Clostridium perfringens (C. perfringens) is an unusual cause of bacteraemia in the healthy, immunocompetent host. Similarly, acalculous cholecystitis is rare in the absence of critical illness or preceding trauma. We present, to the best of our knowledge, the first documented case of concurrent C. perfringens bacteraemia and acalculous cholecystitis in a previously well human. Cas...
A 54-year-old otherwise healthy male, who was being evaluated for prolonged fever, developed clinical and ultrasonographic signs compatible with acute acalculous cholecystitis. Diagnosis of murine typhus was confirmed by serology and the patient was treated with doxycycline. He improved rapidly and all clinical and laboratory abnormalities returned to normal. The present case dictates that know...
Acute cholecystitis is most frequently concomitant with cholelithiasis, whereas acute acalculous cholecystitis is usually of an infectious aetiology. Among the aetiological factors, Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) infection is also mentioned. The case of a 17-year-old girl is described, hospitalised in the Children's Clinical Hospital, Paediatric Clinic, at the Medical University in Lublin, due to fev...
There are 13 cases of campylobacter cholecystitis reported so far in the medical literature. Among them, only 4 patients had diarrhea. We report another case of acalculous cholecystitis in a setting of campylobacter enteritis. The case report is followed by a literature review regarding this rare condition.
Acute acalculous cholecystitis (AAC) can occur without gallstones in critically ill or injured patients and has also been associated with various infectious agents.(1-4) We report here a case of AAC in a patient with Plasmodium falciparum malaria.
We report herein the first case of acute acalculous cholecystitis caused by Lactococcus garvieae, which is known as a fish pathogen. A 69-year-old fisherman underwent laparoscopic cholecystectomy due to severe inflammation in the gallbladder. The isolate obtained from the gallbladder was identified as L. garvieae by 16S rRNA and manganese-dependent superoxide dismutase (sodA) gene sequence anal...
Acalculous hemorrhagic cholecystitis is a rare complication of acute cholecystitis and is associated with a high mortality rate. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is usually not performed for the diagnosis of acute cholecystitis, but it is a valuable imaging modality and affords excellent tissue contrast for the diagnosis of hemorrhagic cholecystitis and the detection of hematoma within the gall...
