T2-and T1-hypointense round bodies consistent with dropped gallstones. The collection indented the liver parenchyma at the level of the right sub-phrenic space (Figures 1-3). Therefore, a diagnosis of abscess resulting from suspected infected spilled gallstones was made. The patient underwent exploratory laparotomy that revealed a 3x3 cm mass containing purulent material and gallstones.
