Giant Gallstone With Gallbladder Perforation and Hepatic Abscess in an Asian Patient

Giant gallstone with a secondary hepatic abscess is a very rare phenomenon. We recently treated a patient with a giant gallbladder (GB) stone of size 11.5 cm with a hepatic abscess who presented with features of an acute abdomen. This was subsequently managed with an open subtotal cholecystectomy and concomitant hepatic abscess drainage. To the best of our knowledge and after a thorough literature search, this is one of the largest reported gall bladder (GB) stones with wall perforation and hepatic abscess in the Asian subcontinent.
