ABSTRACT
La colangiopancreatografía retrógrada endoscópica (CPRE) es una técnica endoscópica con un riesgo de complicaciones secundarias que oscila del 2,5-8%. Las complicaciones que con más frecuencia se presentan son la pancreatitis, procesos infecciosos, hemorragia o perforación. El hematoma hepático secundario a CPRE es una rara y potencialmente grave complicación con pocos casos descritos en la literatura. A continuación presentamos dos casos de hematomas hepáticos secundarios a la realización de CPRE, realizando una revisión de la bibliografía y de las posibles opciones terapéuticas (AU)
ERCP is an endoscopic procedure with a complication risk ranging from 2.5 to 8%. The most frequent complications are pancreatitis, cholangitis, hemorrhage or perforation. Hepatic hematoma after ERCP is a potentially serious, rare complication. Not many cases are reported in the literature. We present here two new cases of hepatic hematoma following ERCP along with a review of the literature and possible therapeutic options (AU)

Eosinophilic cholecystitis (EC) is a rare disease that is characterised by eosinophilic infiltration of the gallbladder. Its pathogenesis is unknown, although many hypotheses have been made. Clinical and laboratory manifestations do not differ from those of other causes of cholecystitis. Diagnosis is histological and usually performed after analysis of the surgical specimen. We report the case of a woman aged 24 years, with symptoms of fever, vomiting and pain in the right upper quadrant. When imaging tests revealed acalculous cholecystitis, an urgent cholecystectomy was performed. Histological examination of the surgical specimen revealed eosinophilic cholecystitis. No cause of the symptoms was found.

La colecistitis eosinofílica (CE) es una enfermedad rara caracterizada por una infiltración eosinófila de la vesícular biliar. Su etiopatogenia es desconocida, aunque se han postulado múltiples hipótesis. Las manifestaciones clínicas y de laboratorio no difieren de otras causas de colecistitis. El diagnóstico es histológico y suele realizarse tras el análisis de la pieza quirúrgica. Presentamos el caso de una mujer de 24 años, con clínica de fiebre, dolor en hipocondrio derecho y vómitos. Las pruebas de imagen evidenciaban una colecistitis alitiásica, tras lo cual se realizó una colecistectomía urgente. Los hallazgos histológicos de la pieza quirúrgica revelaban una colecistitis eosinofílica. En este caso, no se encontró causa que justificase el cuadro
