Tài liệu Báo cáo y học: "Campylobacter cholecystitis"

A 35-year-old healthy lady presented with high grade fever, severe abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting and profuse watery diarrhea, sometimes green in color. There was no history of animal contact, recent travel or camping. On exam, the patient was hy-potensive and was looking acutely ill. Initial labs showed leukocytosis of 11900 with 39% bands. She also had hypokalemia of 3.3 mmol/L, acute kidney injury with elevated creatinine of 1.6 mg/dl from a baseline of 0.6 secondary to dehydration. She was resuscitated with IV fluids, started on empirical Ciprofloxacin and Metronidazole. The patient continued to have abdominal pain. Murphy's sign was positive which prompted us to do a right upper quadrant ultrasound which showed thickened gall bladder wall of upto 1cm consistent with cholecystitis.
