Catastrophic antiphospholipid syndrome (CAPS) is a rare life threatening presentation of antiphospholipid syndrome. Surgery has been proposed as one of the triggering factors for this life threatening entity. There are no detailed published reports in the current literature describing CAPS as a complication after surgery. We report a case of a 21 year old that developed CAPS postoperatively and discuss the multidisciplinary approach for diagnosis and management.

Acute hydrops of the gallbladder is described in four patients who had mucocutaneous lymph node syndrome. Diagnosis was readily made with grayscale ultrasound, and the patients were followed with this technique. The gallbladder returned to normal size in all of the patients within 15 days, and none of the patients needed surgery. The role of surgery in acute hydrops of the gallbladder is for the complications of the hydrops and not for distension alone.
