  • Title: Acalculous cholecystitis and tamponade: an unusual combination?
    Author: Lenders G, Goethals M, Verstreken S, Dierckx R, Vanderheyden M.
    Journal: Acta Cardiol; 2011 Jun; 66(3):383-5. PubMed ID: 21744712.
    Abstract:
    Although pericardial effusion is a well-known feature of Churg-Strauss syndrome, cardiac tamponade has rarely been encountered. The present report describes a case of Churg-Strauss syndrome that presented as an acute cholecystitis and was complicated by tamponade. Histopathological exam of both pericardium and gall bladder was conclusive for Churg-Strauss syndrome.
