Abstract
In patients being observed and treated with acute cholecystitis a rise in the liver enzymes hiperbilirubinemia could be seen due to choledocholithiasis and cholangitis rarely. Classically this rise in the enzyme levels is moderate, but in some cases this rise could be severe. By taking this situation in consideration in patients with high enzyme levels observation and treatment should be carried out more carefully and surgical plan should be discussed exclusively with large case series.
