[Symptomatic pseudolithiasis caused by Rocephalin].
Treatment with ceftriaxone may be accompanied by precipitation of ceftriaxone calcium salts in the gallbladder, called pseudolithiasis. We present a case, in which a formerly healthy five year-old girl developed symptomatic pseudolithiasis during treatment with Rocephalin. The symptoms and pseudolithiasis disappeared after a few days with symptomatic treatment and change of antibiotics.
