Ultrasound appearance of intragallbladder haemorrhage in two patients with haemobilia is presented. Gallbladder lumina were occupied by non-shadowing, firm masses of mixed echogenicity representing blood clots. In both cases iatrogenic trauma following percutaneous transcholecystic cholangiography and blind hepatic biopsy caused bleeding in the biliary tree.
