Choledocholithiasis Masquerading as Preeclampsia with Severe Features in a Patient with a History of a Cholecystectomy Case Report
Authors: Seyed Mohammad Nahidi, Salonie Dave, Brittany Robles, Amr Shayeb
Abstract
A 43-year-old multigravida patient, 12 days postpartum and with a history of cholecystectomy, presented to our institution with markedly elevated blood pressure, nausea, vomiting, epigastric pain, and headache. She met the criteria for preeclampsia with severe features and was placed on magnesium sulfate. Further investigation was required when the laboratory values and abdominal pain were unresponsive to the medications. A magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography was done and the patient was diagnosed with choledocholithiasis.
