Abstract Computed tomography findings of diffuse gallbladder wall thickening and pericholecystic soft tissue strandings are often present in acute cholecystitis. However, they are nonspecific. A paediatric patient suffered from leukaemic infiltration of the gallbladder, which was mimicked by acute acalculous cholecystitis both clinically and radiologically.
