This case report describes a laparoscopic approach using fluorescence imaging guidance to treat gangrenous cholecystitis with perforation (GCP). A male patient in his early 60s presented with 3 days of right upper abdominal pain. Computed tomography and ultrasonography findings were consistent with a stone incarcerated in the gallbladder neck, GCP, and localized peritonitis. Percutaneous gallbladder drainage was initially performed, followed by laparoscopic cholecystectomy 7 days later, using combined intravenous and intracholecystic fluorescent cholangiography. This technique allowed visualization of the cystic and common bile ducts during surgery and enabled safe removal of the diseased gallbladder. The patient recovered well without complications, and reported no pain or discomfort at a 2-month follow-up.
