We present the case of a 77-year-old male patient with a history of ischemic heart disease, pulmonary thromboembolism and aortic aneurysm with management with oral anticoagulation, went to the emergency department for abdominal pain, CT angiography reported active bleeding towards the gallbladder and hemoperitoneum, a 4-port laparoscopic cholecystectomy was performed with findings: perforated gallbladder, hemoperitoneum and active intravesicular bleeding.

Conclusion:

Keywords : hemocholecyst; hemorrhagic cholecystitis; laparoscopic cholecystectomy.
