“…Only four cases of complete avulsion of the gallbladder (from liver, cystic artery, and duct) were found in the available English‐language literature from 1932 until 1984 . The normal gallbladder is predisposed to injury when it is distended, pendulous, or loosely attached to its bed 4.…”

“…Daher ist die Mitverletzung der Gallenblase im Rahmen von stumpfen/penetrierenden Bauchtraumen ein seltenes Ereignis (Häufigkeit 0,5-8%) [25]. Ihre isolierte Schädigung nach stumpfen Bauchtraumen wird noch wesentlich seltener, in weniger als 2% der Fälle, gesehen [3,4,12,16,20,22,24]. Die Wahrscheinlichkeit, dass der einzelne Chirurg mit diesem Problem konfrontiert wird, ist folglich eher gering.…”

Isolated injuries to the gallbladder are extremely rare in blunt abdominal trauma, with a reported incidence of less than 2%. We report a case with partial avulsion of the gallbladder and subsequent hemorrhagic shock in a patient with liver cirrhosis. Although the gallbladder injury was demonstrated on CT images (with contrast enhancement in the bed of the gallbladder), the correct diagnosis was not established preoperatively. Emergency laparotomy revealed partial avulsion of the gallbladder and the underlying condition of severe liver cirrhosis with ascites. We estimate that the gallbladder avulsion occurred due to compressional waves of the ascites (during blunt abdominal injury) which may have sheared off the gallbladder from the cirrhotic liver. The patient received cholecystectomy, which is recommended as standard in case of gallbladder injury.

Non-surgical trauma to the extrahepatic biliary tract

Non-surgical trauma to the extrahepatic biliary tract is uncommon and encountered only rarely by surgeons outside specialist hepatobiliary centres. Such injury often results in significant morbidity and mortality. This review outlines the incidence, classification, mechanisms of injury, presentation, diagnostic techniques and management options. Depending on the type of biliary injury identified, an optimal method of repair is suggested. Recommendations are made for surgeons who encounter this type of injury and do not have the appropriate expertise for definitive management.
