[Hepatobiliary scintigraphy in a case of acute cholecystitis in childhood].

Acute cholecystitis is an uncommon disease in childhood. Few cases in patients under 10 years of age have been found in literature. An eight-year old male patient with no history of interest who had acute acalculous cholecystitis was reported. Ultrasonographic and isotopic studies led to the diagnosis and control of the patient's evolution.
