Key Points

Sepsis developed due to transmural migration of a fishbone from the pylorus to the gallbladder, causing severe inflammation.
The colonization of the gallbladder by the fishbone necessitated surgical intervention and delayed diagnosis complicating treatment.
Observational analysis of the case illustrates the rare complication from an ingested foreign body within the gastrointestinal tract.
This highlights the need for awareness of atypical presentations related to ingested foreign objects, and may inform clinical practice.
