Gallblabber empyema with pericholecystic abscess around a stone nidus[outside the gallblabber]

Abstract EN

Gallbladder disease is relatively common and its complications are seen every now and then.

One of the rare complications is gallbladder perforation.

In our case we were faced with a picture similar to perforation of the gallbladder upon surgical exploration, with empyema of gallbladder and pericholecystic abscess and a stonelocated between the gallbladder and the liver bed (inside the abscess) and no perforation in the gallbladder or fistula with the biliary tree could be discerned.
