Hemangioma of the gallbladder is rare, with less than 10 cases reported in the literature. It may represent a hamartomatous proliferation of connective tissue in the gallbladder or may be congenital in origin. Although liver hemangiomas rarely present with spontaneous rupture, it has not been documented in gallbladder hemangiomas. This report presents a case of gallbladder hemangioma that ruptured spontaneously and presented with hemoperitoneum.
