Abstract:
This image article presents an 88-year-old indigenous woman with a history of several episodes of abdominal pain, for which she went to numerous different hospitals in the countryside, was always treated with analgesics, and then discharged. After a long time, the patient eventually was evaluated with magnetic resonance imaging. The test revealed a displaced gallbladder with thickened walls, multiple stones, and a fistulous tract extending to the skin. This case underscores the significant challenges faced by patients in regions with limited healthcare access, highlighting the impact of delayed diagnosis and inadequate management on patient outcomes.
