Biliary - Distended Gallbladder

Caption

Elderly male with history HTN, DM presented with jaundice and elevated LFTs, bilirubin, and alkaline phosphatase. POCUS showed distended gallbladder with normal wall thickness, and some areas of increased echogenicity in the gallbladder which may represent debris. Patient was later found to have a proximal pancreatic mass likely compressing bile ducts and causing distention of gallbladder and elevated lab findings.
