Abstract
Symptoms of acute cholecystitis developed in a 22-year-old woman with active SLE. Abdominal ultrasonography and biliary patency scan showed evidence of acalculous cholecystitis and common bile duct obstruction, respectively. Operation revealed acalculous cholecystitis and hemobilia; a liver biopsy specimen also showed hemobilia. Surgery relieved the patient's symptoms. This case demonstrates a new complication of SLE.Entities:
