  • 1. Hopital Henri-Mondor, 94 - Creteil (France)

Description

A case of infiltrative hematoma of the porta hepatis and the gallbladder wall is reported. It is a rare complication of anticoagulant treatment. The sonographics findings were an echogenic material surrounding the porta hepatis, and a gallbladder wall thickening. Both these lesions appeared as dense areas on computed tomography (CT) scan. The aetiologies of hemorrhagic cholecystitis are discussed
