Summary:

Description
  • Radiopaedia case ID: 39068
  • Image ID: 15291056
  • Image stack position: 18/77
  • Plane projection: Axial
  • Aux modality: non-contrast
  • Modality: CT
  • System: Hepatobiliary
  • Findings: Partly calcified gallstone at the neck of the gallbladder. No pericholecystic fluid or fat stranding. Gallbladder wall is difficult to appreciate but may be mildly thickened. High density within a grossly dilated common bile duct is highly suspicious for choledocholithiasis. Gas is present within the liver within portal vein branches and there is a small locule of gas within the superior mesenteric vein with more substantial volume of gas within tributaries from the mid to distal stomach. Bowel resection noted with rectosigmoid anastomotic sutures. 3 cm right basal pulmonary mass. In the pelvis, there are loops of small bowel with fecal material mimicking mural gas - note no mural thickening, adjacent fat stranding or free fluid.
