title: [Acute gangrenous cholecystitis with suppurative acute cholangitis in the 1st days of the puerperium].
abstract: A 25-year-old secundipara developed acute gangrenous cholecystitis coupled with suppurative cholangitis on the fourth pureperal day. The patient recovered after cholecystectomy and choledochotomy. It is pointed out that cholelithiasis is not rare in pregnancy but acute cholecystitis is very rare, especially in the puerperium. For this reason the diagnosis is difficult, yet the final issue depends on its early establishment and also on the early surgical intervention.
