We report the case of a 2-year-old girl who presented with peritonitis secondary to spontaneous gallbladder perforation. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

• Soft Tissue Mass

  Visualization of a wall defect was demonstrated in only five cases (45%) and was associated with a focal echogenic soft-tissue mass. CONCLUSION: Missed perforations by ultrasound may partially result from technical inadequacies. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

• Multiple Organ Dysfunction Syndrome

  Postoperatively patient developed shock and multiple organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS)secondary to Klebsiella sepsis and expired two days later. [casereports.in]

• Fecal Urgency

  In the entire group, gastrointestinal symptoms were prevalent and included flatulence (40%), loose stools or fecal urgency (35%), belching (23%), and nausea (4%). [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

• Withdrawn

  INTRODUCTION: Accidental rupture of the gallbladder is an event which occurs in up to 20% of laparoscopic cholecystectomies, mainly in those where dissection is difficult, or during extraction when the gallbladder is withdrawn directly through the laparoscope [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

• Positive Widal Test

  Pre-operative diagnoses of typhoid enteric perforation were made based on a positive Widal test. Intra-operative findings however, were that of bile peritonitis and gallbladder perforation. Both had cholecystectomy. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

• Ischemic Changes

  Further histologic examinations of the perforation site showed ischemic changes. There were no biliary complications after surgery. Nevertheless, the patient died of multiple organ failure at 120 days old. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

• Liver Biopsy

  Gallbladder perforation is an uncommon complication of percutaneous liver biopsy. Diagnosis is usually made clinically and management has traditionally been by cholecystectomy. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Conservative treatment of occult gallbladder perforation is possible and should be performed in high-risk patients. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

However, the correct and early diagnosis of gallbladder perforation is important for the treatment and prognosis. We report 4 critically ill patients with ascites. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Given that gallbladder perforation represents an advanced stage of acute cholecystitis, typically occurring in otherwise comorbid patients, the prognosis is often worse. [radiopaedia.org]

Prognosis is usually good; postoperative mortality has been minimal. [njcponline.com]

An accurate and early diagnosis of GBP with liver abscess formation is important so as to start the treatment as soon as possible and thereby improve the prognosis. [scipedia.com]

The etiology of gallbladder perforation varies greatly and is often unknown. Identified causes include infection, congenital, stones or choledochal cysts. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

The etiology is not yet clear and further research is warranted. Multiple modalities have been used to assist in diagnosis yet most diagnoses are still made at the time of laparotomy. [medcraveonline.com]
