CASE PRESENTATION A 37‐year‐old woman presented to the emergency department with nonbilious vomiting and acute‐onset right‐sided abdominal pain. She had previously been diagnosed with haemolytic anaemia and gallstone disease. The patient was alert but appeared pale and jaundiced. The right side of her abdomen was tender. There was no guarding or rebound tenderness. She was afebrile and tachycardiac, with a blood pressure of 130/88 mmHg. Her white blood cell count and serum bilirubin levels were significantly elevated. Serum amylase and serum lipase were within normal limits. A chest radiograph was performed [Figure 1], followed by contrast‐enhanced computed tomography (CT) of the abdomen [Figure 2a–c]. What do these images show? What is the diagnosis?
