Cholecystocolonic fistula (CCF) is a rare complication of cholelithiasis. They are often asymptomatic, difficult to diagnose preoperatively, it despite radiological support, and they are discovered incidentally perioperatively. We present the case of a woman with acute cholecystitis, who was operated by laparoscopy, and a CCF was evidenced, it was resolved by conversion to open surgery. FCC can be complicated and simulate acute abdominal symptoms. It should be taken into account in older adults with a history of cholelithiasis and scleroatrophic vesicles with adhesions. Very few cases have been described in the literature, and none in our country. We present a case of FCC that was admitted as acute cholecystitis, and the diagnosis and treatment of it were during her surgery.

Chylous ascites (CA) is a rare condition, and it can present as a peritoneal reaction named acute chylous peritonitis (ACP). We report the case of a 26-year old male who developed acute abdomen. He underwent surgery and turbid milky fluid was found in his abdominal cavity. A prophylactic appendectomy was performed, as well as aspiration and lavage of the abdominal cavity. Drainage tubes were placed. Studies of the fluid revealed increased triglyceride and amylase contents. Gram-staining and cultures were negative. A computed tomography scan revealed acute pancreatitis (Balthazar C), so a diagnosis of chylous ascites secondary to pancreatitis was confirmed. The patient did well, he received hydration, analgesics, and oral diet according to tolerance. Very few cases of ACP have been reported in the literature, and its association with acute pancreatitis is very unusual. This condition may ...
