Ceftriaxone Biliary pseudocholelithiasis: case report In a retrospective study involving 17 patients conducted at a hospital between April 2013 and March 2017, an 80-year-old man was described, who developed biliary pseudocholelithiasis during treatment with ceftriaxone [route, dosage and indication not stated]. The man, who had been receiving treatment with ceftriaxone, presented with a complaint of right epigastric discomfort.
