Abstract
Cholecystitis is an inflammation of the gallbladder with classic symptoms of right upper quadrant abdominal pain and fever. The most common precipitating factor is cholelithiasis; however, it sometimes appears in conjunction with other hepatobiliary-pancreatic pathology. Management is generally done with antibiotics and supportive care with or without cholecystectomy. The surgical management in practice is often limited by surgery time and patient suitability considering their likely overall outcome. We have outlined two cases with different etiologies presenting as cholecystitis. The aim was to further understand the benefits of multidisciplinary team meetings to optimize patient care and emphasize the roles of endoscopic ultrasonography and endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography in hepatobiliary pathology.
