Most gall bladders surgically removed contain stones. The incidence of cholelithiasis in published cholecystectomy series ranges from 75% to 100%, with an average for the aggregate of 92.5%.1Only occasionally has stonefree cholecystitis been considered separately.* However, acute inflammation, and even gangrene, of the gall bladder can occur in the ...

Acute emphysematous cholecystitis
The American Journal of Surgery, 1956Abstract 1. 1. Two cases of acute emphysematous cholecystitis are described and added to a total of thirty-four cases collected from the literature. 2. 2. The diagnosis is dependent upon the plain film of the abdomen showing gas in the gallbladder lumen. A gas-fluid level is often demonstrated. 3. 3.

THE preoperative diagnosis of gaseous cholecystitis has been comparatively rare, and in the absence of surgical or post-mortem examination, its detection is only possible by roentgenographic examination of the gall-bladder region. There is no way to distinguish gaseous or emphysematous cholecystitis from other cases of cholecystitis without such a ...

Acute Gangrenous Cholecystitis
New England Journal of Medicine, 1949GANGRENE of the gall bladder is a complete necrosis of a portion of the wall in one or more areas, and is frequently followed by perforation. Since 1844, when James Duncan,1 of the Royal Infirmary in Edinburgh, reported a case, the clinical application of the pathology of this disease has been a source of interest and concern to internists and surgeons.

Bacteremia occurs frequently in cholangitis, but the incidence of bacteremia in acute cholecystitis has not previously been examined.Seventy-eight cases (46 men and 32 women; mean age, 63 +/- 10 years) of acute cholecystitis with positive blood cultures were analyzed for clinical manifestation, bacteriology, and what consequences ensued.

Acute acalculous cholecystitis
The American Journal of Surgery, 1981Sixty-three patients, 49 men and 14 women, developed acute cholecystitis without gallbladder stones. Only eight patients had a history suggestive of gallbladder disease. In 17 patients cholecystitis developed in the postoperative period, and cholecystitis occurred in 7 patients who had extensive trauma.

Abstract A case of acute gaseous cholecystitis is presented. An abdominal roentgenogram and blood culture established the exact anatomical and etiological diagnosis, acute gaseous cholecystitis with Cl. perfringens bacteremia. Conservative treatment with the administration of massive doses of penicillin and parenteral tetracycline resulted in recovery.
