Abstract:
Hemorrhagic cholecystitis is a rare and potentially life-threatening condition that requires immediate medical attention. If the gallbladder perforates, it can lead to even more severe complications. We present the case of a 27-year-old man with Glanzmann's thrombasthenia, a rare platelets disorder, who visited the emergency department twice before being diagnosed with this condition. Initially, he complained of ear pain, and later, chest pain. Despite a normal ECG and cardiac markers, he was discharged with non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) for musculoskeletal pain. However, when he returned with abdominal pain, nausea, and vomiting, an ultrasound revealed signs of cholecystitis. An emergency laparoscopic cholecystectomy was performed, which revealed hemorrhagic cholecystitis.
