Finding of CT and MR evaluation of gallbladder hemobilia.

We report a case of gallbladder hemobilia secondary to blunt abdominal trauma. The diagnosis was initially based on findings on CT scan of the abdomen and correlated with MRI findings. The patient was found to have a distended gallbladder containing high-density material consistent with hemobilia. MRI revealed a gallbladder containing material of mixed signal intensity consistent with blood products. Gallbladder hemobilia is a very rare condition which is potentially fatal.
