Examination showed an inflammatory lumbar mass with leukocytosis and elevated C-reactive protein. Imaging revealed a right paravertebral collection with a fistulous tract to the abdominal cavity. Despite antibiotics and percutaneous drainage, recurrence occurred. Surgical lumbotomy revealed multiple gallstones, confirming the etiology, with subsequent clinical improvement.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Retained gallstones may migrate, act as foreign bodies, and cause recurrent infection.
