Abstract

Abstract The Coronavirus 2019 disease (COVID-19) originated in Wuhan in China in December 2019 has evolved over the past year in terms of its pathophysiology, clinical presentation, imaging manifestations and management strategies. Though COVID-19 is predominantly a pulmonary illness, it is now established to show widespread extra pulmonary involvement. Gastrointestinal manifestations of COVID-19 are also well known. COVID-19 infection presenting with the involvement of gallbladder is extremely rare in medical literature. Gallbladder perforation should be thought of in COVID-19 patients complaining of with acute abdomen in with acute cholecystitis.
