Clinical examination revealed marked cranial abdominal pain. A severe neutrophilic leukocytosis was present. Abdominal ultrasound was consistent with a diffuse peritonitis and severe bile duct inflammation. Cytology of the abdominal effusion revealed bile peritonitis. An exploratory laparotomy was performed and the gall bladder appeared inflamed with multiple perforations. A cholecystectomy was performed. The\u00a0ferret\u00a0recovered without complication. Bacteriological culture of the bile and gall bladder yielded a pure growth of Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Histopathological analysis of the gall bladder and liver was consistent with a marked cholecystitis and cholangiohepatitis. On the basis of sensitivity testing, the\u00a0ferret\u00a0was treated with marbofloxacin for one month. No complications or reoccurrence were seen up to 1\u2009year after the diagnosis. To the authors\u2019 knowledge, this is the first report of bile peritonitis secondary to gall bladder rupture in a\u00a0ferret. The study is from the Centre Hospitalier V\u00e9t\u00e9rinaire Fr\u00e9gis, Arcueil, France.\r\n\r\nHuynh M,\u00a0Guillaumot P,\u00a0Hernandez J,\u00a0Ragetly G.
