Summary:

Description
  • Radiopaedia case ID: 68368
  • Study ID: 77902
  • Image ID: 49694820
  • Plane projection: Axial
  • Modality: CT
  • System: Interventional
  • Findings: Post contrast CT in portal venous phase imaging showing a gall bladder which is not normal. GB is very inflamed with ill-defined fluid collections adjacent to gall Bladder, anterior to liver, inflammatory changes in the ascending colon, hepatic flexure and duodenum. Air in the GB fossa and in duodenum, should increase the radiologist's suspicion for a complication of chronic cholecystitis like a cholecystoduodenal fistula.
  • Study findings: CT scan with contrast showing an inflamed GB and air in the GB fossa with severe pericholecystic inflammatory changes. However, there is an improvement in the fluid collection from the CT 3 days prior. Differential diagnosis include gangrenous cholecystitis with cholecystoenteric fistula. This was confirmed on PTC performed subsequently.
