Acute cholecystitis following hemobilia is very rare, with only five cases reported in the literature. A case report of a 22-year-old woman who underwent a liver biopsy for staging of Hodgkin's lymphoma and developed cholecystitis due to hemobilia is presented. The incidence of hemobilia has increased with the advent of more invasive hepatobiliary procedures, but the mortality has been decreasing due to better recognition and therapy. Acute cholecystitis associated with hemobilia is very rare, but will be seen with increasing frequency; and a high index of suspicion needs to be maintained to ensure timely diagnosis and treatment.
