Massive hemoperitoneum from transhepatic perforation of the gallbladder: a rare complication of cholelithiasis.

R G Syme1, E J Thomas.   

Abstract

A 74-year-old woman with known cholelithiasis arrived at our emergency department with mild abdominal pain. During investigation she collapsed with abrupt hypotension. A peritoneal tap revealed frank blood. At urgent laparotomy, there were several liters of blood in the peritoneal cavity and two free gallstones, despite an apparently intact gallbladder. We report the second recorded instance of transhepatic perforation of the gallbladder presenting as massive hemoperitoneum.
