Abstract |
The "rim sign" is a rim of increased hepatic activity
adjacent to the gall bladder fossa and known as an
useful indicator of acute cholecystitis. Also, many
reports suggested that if rim sign is positive there is
an increased risk for complications such as perforation
and gangrene. To evaluate the usefulness of this rim
sign, we reviewed 32 cases that were pathologically
confirmed. The incidence of rim sign was 47% similar to
other reports but with our results, the rim sign was
not specific to acute cholecystitis nor indicator of
increased risk for complications. |
