The assessment of external respiration during a 2-day management of acute pain attack produced by cholecystitis disclosed a 1.2-1.5-fold decrease in the parameters of the function resultant from poor ventilation of the pulmonary zones and loss of coordination between the ventilation and relevant blood flow. On day 3 of the attack treatment of external respiration returned to normal functioning though in patients over 60 this return took a week, as they had a 1.2-2-fold drop in the blood flow and pulmonary ventilation. The attempts of administration of adrenoblockers in combined treatment of acute cholecystitis succeeded in restoration of pulmonary function during 3 days and in more rapid attenuation of attacks in acute cholecystitis.

Acute pain at the right side of the abdomen rarely is caused by idiopathic segmental infarction of the greater omentum (ISIGO). In most cases the patient is presumed to suffer from appendicitis or cholecystitis. Although some radiologic signs might suggest ISIGO, this rare clinical entity mostly is diagnosed perioperatively and confirmed by postoperative pathologic findings. In the reported case, a patient is described with acute right-side abdominal pain of unknown origin, in whom ISIGO was encountered during diagnostic laparoscopy and successfully resected. Because of this minimally invasive approach, the patient was discharged the day after surgery and returned to work after 5 days. The pathogenesis, symptoms, and treatment methods are discussed.

Torsion of the gallbladder is common in elderly women. Different causes have been proposed for this rare condition. The presence of a long mesentery and loss of visceral fat are the main causes for the development of torsion. Patients present with a sudden, acute pain in the right upper quadrant, suggesting cholecystitis. Different imaging methods have shown particular findings, but the diagnosis is still complex. Today, just a few cases have been reported in the literature. The treatment for this condition consists of surgical detorsion and cholecystectomy. Gallbladder torsion is a very rare entity and should be suspected when these clinical findings are present.

Atypical manifestations of dengue fever (DF) and dengue haemorrhagic fever (DHF) involving different organs are being increasingly recognised, especially in the dengue endemic areas. We report an atypical presentation of DF in a 22 year old lady presenting with fever and acute pain in the right hypochondrium, diagnosed to be acute acalculus cholecystitis (AAC).

Acute acalculous cholecystitis is a rare complication in the treatment of acute myeloblastic leukemia. Diagnosis of acute acalculous cholecystitis remains difficult during neutropenic period. We present two acute myeloblastic leukemia patients that developed acute acalculous cholecystitis during chemotherapy-induced neutropenia. They suffered from fever, vomiting and acute pain in the epigastrium. Ultrasound demonstrated an acalculous gallbladder. Surgical management was required in one patient and conservative treatment was attempted in the other patient. None treatment measures were effective and two patients died. Acute acalculous cholecystitis is a serious complication in neutropenic patients. Earlier diagnosis could have expedited the management of these patients.

Gall bladder perforation as a sequel of typhoid-induced acalculous cholecystitis is a rare clinical encounter, reported sparsely in literature. Here, we discuss a case wherein successful laparoscopic management of typhoid-induced gall bladder perforation was performed. A 24-year-old female presented with a history of 5 days of fever and acute pain in the abdomen for 2 days. Computed tomography scan suggested gall bladder perforation which was confirmed on diagnostic laparoscopy. Laparoscopic cholecystectomy with peritoneal lavage was performed. The patient did well postoperatively and was discharged on post-operative day 4 after drain removal. One should be aware about the possibility of gall bladder perforation as a sequel of acalculous cholecystitis in typhoid fever. Minimal access surgery techniques can be applied for confirming the diagnosis as well as the definitive treatment.
