Physical examination was unremarkable. Laboratory investigations, including complete blood count (CBC) and liver function test (LFT), were within normal limits. Upper abdominal ultrasound revealed hepatomegaly and gallbladder contraction with multiple gallstones. Intraoperative exploration during laparoscopic cholecystectomy revealed adhesions with cholecystogastric fistula, necessitating meticulous dissection, fistula excision, and primary closure.<\/jats:p>\n                    <jats:p>Postoperatively, the patient recovered uneventfully, with a negative methylene blue leak test allowing early oral intake.
