Gallbladder blunt trauma is uncommon and represents about 1.8% of blunt abdominal injuries. In combination with other organic injuries and previous surgical procedures, diagnosis may be a challenge. We report a case of a patient who was previously admitted for surgery and recovered after an abdominal trauma with a primary diagnosis of small fracture of the liver. An accurate diagnosis was delayed because of silent clinical presentation. Surgical cholecystectomy was performed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
