Summary: One of the known complications of gallstones consists in gallbladder perforation with cholecystocutaneous abscesses or external fistulas formation. Nowadays these types of complications are uncommon, having been more frequent. The authors report the case of an 86 year-old woman, bedridden and dependent, referred to our institution by presenting a tumefaction with inflammatory signs in the right upper quadrant. The radiological investigation revealed it to be a subcutaneous abscess associated with a perforated gallbladder, whose histological analysis revealed xanthogranulomatous cholecystitis.Keywords: Abscess; Cholecystitis; Granuloma; Xanthomatosis; Subcutaneous Tissue.

Actualmente este tipo de complicação é pouco frequente na prática diária, tendo sido mais frequente. Os autores relatam o caso de uma senhora de 86 anos, acamada e dependente, referenciada à nossa instituição por apresentar uma tumefacção no quadrante superior direito, com sinais inflamatórios associados. A investigação imagiológica da referida tumefacção revelou tratar-se de um abcesso subcutâneo associado a perfuração da vesicula biliar, cuja análise histológica revelou colecistite xantogranulomatosa.Palavras-chave: Abcesso; Colecistite; Granuloma; Xantomatose; Tecido Subcutâneo.Ordem dos Médicos2014-08-25info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleapplication/pdfimage/jpegimage/jpegimage/jpegimage/jpegimage/jpegimage/jpegimage/jpegapplication/pdfhttps://www.actamedicaportuguesa.com/revista/index.php/amp/article/view/4785oai:ojs.www.actamedicaportuguesa.com:article/4785Acta Médica Portuguesa; Vol. 27 No. 4 (2014): July-August; 511-514Acta Médica Portuguesa; Vol. 27 N.º 4 (2014): Julho-Agosto; 511-5141646-07580870-399Xreponame:Repositórios Científicos de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (RCAAP)instname:FCCN, serviços digitais da FCT – Fundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologiainstacron:RCAAPenghttps://www.actamedicaportuguesa.com/revista/index.php/amp/article/view/4785https://www.actamedicaportuguesa.com/revista/index.php/amp/article/view/4785/4013https://www.actamedicaportuguesa.com/revista/index.php/amp/article/view/4785/6973https://www.actamedicaportuguesa.com/revista/index.php/amp/article/view/4785/6974https://www.actamedicaportuguesa.com/revista/index.php/amp/article/view/4785/6975https://www.actamedicaportuguesa.com/revista/index.php/amp/article/view/4785/6976https://www.actamedicaportuguesa.com/revista/index.php/amp/article/view/4785/6977https://www.actamedicaportuguesa.com/revista/index.php/amp/article/view/4785/7331https://www.actamedicaportuguesa.com/revista/index.php/amp/article/view/4785/7332https://www.actamedicaportuguesa.com/revista/index.php/amp/article/view/4785/7333Correia, HugoMota, AlexandreCardoso, DanielGerediaga, Gabrielinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2022-12-20T11:03:59Zoai:ojs.www.actamedicaportuguesa.com:article/4785Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireinfo@rcaap.ptopendoar:https://opendoar.ac.uk/repository/71602025-05-28T10:39:54.912581Repositórios Científicos de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (RCAAP) - FCCN, serviços digitais da FCT – Fundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologiafalse
