Abstract
SAGARRA-CEBOLLA, Elena et al. Hemoperitoneum secondary to haemocholecyst due to acute cholecystitis. Cir. cir. [online]. 2021, vol.89, n.1, pp.101-103. Epub Nov 08, 2021. ISSN 2444-054X. https://doi.org/10.24875/ciru.19001757.
The haemocholecyst is a rare disease with a low index of suspiction, which is even lower if the patient does not present risk factors. Likewise, the course of this pathology with a haemoperitoneum without vesicular perforation is equally infrequent. We present an unusual case in which the diagnosis of the patient was carried out intraoperatively. We consider that communicating these unusual cases in clinical practice helps to increase clinical suspiction and prompt diagnosis.
