Colonoscopy is a commonly performed low-risk gastrointestinal procedure that may rarely result in a serious complication. Patients presenting with abdominal pain and fever after colonoscopy may have acute cholecystitis. The underlying mechanisms are unclear. Such patients usually present within 72 hours of the procedure. Treatment includes intravenous antibiotics and cholecystectomy. We present our experience of two such cases; a 56-year-old man and a 21-year-old man, both of whom developed acute calculus cholecystitis within 48 hours after a routine colonoscopy. Their symptoms resolved after cholecystectomy.
结肠镜检查是一种常见的低风险胃肠道操作，很少会导致严重并发症。结肠镜检查后出现腹痛和发热的患者可能患有急性胆囊炎。其潜在机制尚不清楚。此类患者通常在操作后72小时内出现症状。治疗包括静脉使用抗生素和胆囊切除术。我们介绍两例此类病例的经验；一名56岁男性和一名21岁男性，两人均在常规结肠镜检查后48小时内发生急性结石性胆囊炎。胆囊切除术后他们的症状得到缓解。
