Serious complications of liver biopsy are uncommon with injury to the gallbladder being rare. Rapid diagnosis and proper management of injuries to the biliary system are necessary because of potential morbidity associated with bile peritonitis. Scintigraphy is an accepted means of evaluating traumatic injuries of the gallbladder and biliary tree. The authors present a case of iatrogenic perforation of the gallbladder during liver biopsy demonstrated by hepatobiliary scintigraphy. CT and surgical correlation are provided.
