The clinicopathologic features in 40 individuals between the ages of 13 and 20 undergoing cholecystectomy were analyzed and found to be a blend of the dissimilar patterns seen in earlier and later years. Only 4 had an associated hemolytic anemia. Females predominated in a ratio of 3.4:1, and a third were parous. Pain and right upper-quadrant tenderness

tients, such as those in the ICU, in whom clin -ical signs may be masked and imaging signs are less specific compared with the ambulant population [6]. Forty percent of patients with acute cholecystitis develop complications [7] (Table 1), including emphysematous chole-cystitis, which is seen more commonly in men and diabetic patients, with calculi ...

Acute cholecystitis is a common cause of the acute abdomen. The diagnosis has been distinctly improved with the development of ultrasonography and hepatobiliary scanning over the past 20 years. The treatment is cholecystectomy, with early as opposed to delayed operation gaining increasing popularity nationwide.

CHOLECYSTITIS WITH PERFORATION
Archives of Surgery, 1946IN AN attempt to determine the true incidence of perforation of the gallbladder in a large series of necropsies, a review was made of 12,000 consecutive routine autopsies done at the Los Angeles County Hospital from April 1936 to January 1942. It is evident from the results of this large series of necropsies that the incidence and mortality of ...

THE CAUSE of jaundice in patients with cholecystitis is not always obvious. If a common duct stone is not found, unproved causes of jaundice may be suggested to justify failure to adequately explore or to perform biopsy. Since jaundice may occur in nearly one third of patients with cholecystitis, and since a common duct stone is found in less than half

Emphysematous cholecystitis is a relatively rare variant of acute cholecystitis with infection by gas-producing organisms. Diagnosis involves the demonstration of gas within the lumen or wall of the gallbladder by ultrasound or CT scan. In contrast to acute cholecystitis, emphysematous cholecystitis occurs more commonly in elderly and diabetic patients,

Cholecystitis and Cholelithiasis

Present therapeutic options may be summarized as follows:

Hemorrhagic cholecystitis is a rare cause of abdominal pain that can present in the setting of trauma, malignancy, and bleeding diathesis, such as renal failure, cirrhosis, and anticoagulation. Its symptoms are easily confused with acute calculous cholecystitis and might include hemobilia or hematemesis as blood drains from the gallbladder into the ...
