Cholecyst-thoracic fistula. A rare complication of lithiasic cholecystitis.

A 64-year-old male patient was studied for repeated right basal pneumonia of long duration. A computed tomography scan showed a cholecystitis of concealed evolution. Surgery revealed fistulization toward the thorax, with the passage of multiple calculi of a biliary origin to the chest cavity. We report the first described case to our knowledge of cholecyst-thoracic fistula secondary to cholecystitis of long evolution.
