Upper gastrointestinal bleeding related to emphysematous cholecystitis due to Clostridium perfringens
International Journal of Infectious Diseases, 08/19/09
Gottignies P et al. – The authors describe the case of a 46–year–old man admitted for upper gastrointestinal bleeding in the context of cirrhosis. A deep bleeding duodenal ulcer was treated by sclerotherapy. Abdominal pain and fever lead us to perform an abdominal computed tomography, which demonstrated emphysematous cholecystitis. An emergency cholecystectomy was performed and antimicrobial therapy initiated.
