Overview

The histopathological analysis may be helpful in the diagnosis of acute cholecystitis. Findings suggestive of acute cholecystitis include edematous and hemorrhagic gallbladder wall, mucosal necrosis with neutrophil infiltration, eosinophilic infiltration of the gallbladder mucosa, and bile infiltration and leucocyte margination of blood vessels.

Other Diagnostic Studies

  • The histopathological analysis may be helpful in the diagnosis of acute cholecystitis. Findings suggestive of acute cholecystitis include:[1][2][3][4]
    • Edematous and hemorrhagic gallbladder wall
    • Mucosal necrosis with neutrophil infiltration
    • Eosinophilic infiltration of the gallblader mucosa
  • Specific microscopic features of acalculous cholecystitis:[5]
    • Bile infiltration of gall bladder wall
    • Bile infiltration and leucocyte margination of blood vessels
    • Lymphatic dilation
