Abstract
The occurrence of acute acalculous cholecystitis during hepatitis A virus (HAV) infection is very rare. Here we describe a child with history of fever, vomiting and jaundice. His serologic test showed specific IgM anti-HAV. During follow up, his abdominal ultrasonography showed thickness of the gallbladder demonstrated acalculous cholecystitis. Surgical laprotomy for acalculous cholecystitis was avoided after resolving HAV infection.
