What Causes Cholecystitis After An Emergency Partial Hysterectomy?
Hi I have cholecystitis and my surgeon gave me a list of reasons why I have this problem. He said that it is poss. that it happened from the amount of blood transfusions I received during an emergency surgery I had 2yrs ago. I had placenta percreta and had to have an emergency partial hysterectomy and had 23 bags of blood during this surgery. Could it be from that?

Hello dear Greetings
Regarding your diagnosed condition of cholecystitis following a blood transfusion for hysterectomy I am suggesting definitely yes it must have contacted it from infected person's blood through the transfusion
In view of this please see a surgeon specialist for further clinical assessment and possible surgical interventional procedures
Meanwhile take some antibiotics pending your appointment
I hope this helps
Regards and get well soonest
