    Area of Science:

    • Gastroenterology
    • Surgical Pathology

    Background:

    • Acute acalculous cholecystitis is gallbladder inflammation without stones.
    • It can occur post-operatively or after trauma.

    Observation:

    • Two cases of acute acalculous cholecystitis are presented following major surgeries: cystectomy and proctocolectomy.
    • The condition presented with a severe, rapid course.

    Findings:

    • Postoperative acute acalculous cholecystitis progresses more aggressively than calculous cholecystitis.
    • The etiology of this condition post-surgery or trauma is complex and multifactorial.

    Implications:

    • Early diagnosis and intervention are crucial for managing postoperative acute acalculous cholecystitis.
    • Immediate cholecystectomy is the standard treatment to prevent complications.
