Hi
I have a question about something I've seen on UWorld explanation:
Why in acalculous cholecystitis Physical examination may demonstrate jaundice and a palpable right upper quadrant mass, both of which are not seen in cases of calculous cholecystitis.
I know that If people develop jaundice or pass dark urine and light-colored stools, the common bile duct is probably blocked by a stone, causing a backup of bile in the liver (cholestasis). But I don't understand the different between acalculous cholecystitis and calculous cholecystitis ? why can't calculous cholecystitis cause jaundice?
