Gallbladder01:17

Gallbladder

The gallbladder is a small, pear-shaped organ that plays a crucial role in our digestive system. Measuring about 10 cm in length, it is comparable in size to a kiwi fruit and is located in a hollow area on the lower surface of the liver. The gallbladder's primary function is to store and concentrate bile, a fluid produced by the liver that aids in digestion.
The gallbladder's anatomy consists of three regions: the fundus, body, and neck. Extending from the neck, the cystic duct joins the common...
Cholecystitis01:20

Cholecystitis

Cholecystitis is inflammation of the gallbladder, most commonly caused by obstruction of the cystic duct. This blockage prevents bile from draining, leading to gallbladder distension, inflammation, and potentially serious complications. This condition may present acutely or chronically and can happen with or without gallstones.EtiologyAbout 95% of cholecystitis cases are calculous, caused by gallstones blocking the cystic duct, leading to bile accumulation and inflammation of the gallbladder...
Diseases of the Liver and Gallbladder01:26

Diseases of the Liver and Gallbladder

Liver and gallbladder diseases are a significant health concern, with prominent conditions including cirrhosis, hepatitis, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), and gallstones. Jaundice is a common manifestation of liver and biliary disease.
Cirrhosis is characterized by the scarring of hepatic lobules in the liver, which are replaced by fibrous tissue, affecting the liver's normal functioning. NAFLD, on the other hand, is caused by an excessive build-up of fat in the liver, not related to...
Appendicitis01:19

Appendicitis

Appendicitis is an acute inflammatory condition of the vermiform appendix, most commonly caused by obstruction of its lumen. The appendix is a narrow, blind-ended pouch that extends from the cecum, making it particularly prone to obstruction. Causes include fecaliths, lymphoid hyperplasia (often after viral infections), parasites, tumors, or foreign bodies. This obstruction initiates a cascade of pathological changes.Luminal Obstruction and Early InflammationAfter obstruction, normal mucosal...

Area of Science:

  • Oncology
  • Gastroenterology
  • Surgical Pathology

Background:

  • Lymphomatous involvement of the gallbladder is an exceedingly rare clinical presentation.
  • Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma can present with extranodal involvement, though the gallbladder is an uncommon site.

Observation:

  • A 69-year-old woman with a known history of indolent non-Hodgkin's lymphoma developed a new gallbladder lesion detected on surveillance computed tomography (CT).

Findings:

  • Surgical resection of the gallbladder mass revealed a diagnosis of follicular lymphoma.
  • Immunohistochemical analysis confirmed the recurrent nature of the lymphoma, matching the characteristics of the primary tumor diagnosed 12 years earlier.

Implications:

  • This case underscores the importance of considering rare presentations of lymphoma recurrence in extranodal sites.
  • It highlights the utility of advanced imaging like CT scans in surveillance and early detection of disease.
  • The findings emphasize the need for thorough histopathological and immunohistochemical evaluation for accurate diagnosis and management of suspected lymphoma recurrence.
