ABSTRACT A 90-years-old man comes to the emergency department with diffuse abdominal pain and fever three days. On physical examination, the abdomen is soft and depressible with air-fluid sound present and bilateral reductible inguinal hernias. A mass is palpated at the level of the roght hypochondrium with a positive Murphy´s sign whitout signs of peritoneal irritation. An abdominal CT with intravenous contrast is requested due to the suspicion of acute abdominal pathology, observing cholelithiasis and a markedly distended gallbladder with torsion.
