Abstract

Acute acalculous cholecystitis is a virulent disease that occurs most commonly in critically ill patients. Imaging studies may facilitate earlier diagnosis and may decrease the morbidity and mortality rates. The authors report on a 30-month-old child with acute acalculous cholecystitis after surgical repair of tetralogy of Fallot. A review of the clinical pathogenesis, diagnosis, and treatment is included.
