A case of haemorrhagic cholecystitis with no risk factors.

Haemorrhagic cholecystitis (HC) is a rare cause of cholecystitis that can be fatal if management is delayed. HC could present in the setting of trauma, malignancy and bleeding diathesis, such as renal failure, cirrhosis and anticoagulation. Its symptoms are easily confused with acute calculous or acalculous cholecystitis and might include haemobilia or hematemesis as blood drains from the gallbladder into the gastrointestinal tract. Imaging of HC can be misleading unless the possibility of this diagnosis is considered. In this report, we present an interesting case of HC in a patient with none of the above comorbidities and the patient who was not on anticoagulation neither anti platelets. The case includes relevant imaging and a review of the literature on this rare subject.
