Abstract:
We report two cases of actinomycosis of the gallbladder due to Actinomyces naeslundii. Both patients presented with acute cholecystitis. After cholecystectomy with the removal of gallstones each patient made an uneventful recovery. The literature on cholecystitis due to Actinomyces is reviewed.
