Recent studies have demonstrated that ceftriaxone induces reversible precipitates in the gallbladder. This complication is referred to as '' biliary pseudolithiasis '', and it has symptoms similar to the raised intracranial pressure (ICP) symptoms of the perioperative period. Symptomatic biliary pseudolithiasis should be kept in mind in all pediatric neurosurgery cases under ceftriaxone therapy in order to prevent unnecessary postoperative investigations and surgery.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccesscephalosporinantibiotic prophylaxischildrensurgeryCeftriaxone-induced symptomatic pseudolithiasis mimicking ICP elevationArticle662929410.1055/s-2004-8324732-s2.0-1874439078715846537N/AWOS:000228756300006Q3
