Abstract:
An elderly woman presented with a lump in the right groin, clinically suggestive of a femoral hernia, but surgical exploration revealed a cystic mass of poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma. Post mortem examination showed it to be a metastic deposit of carcinoma of the gall-bladder. Presentation of gall-bladder carcinoma as a femoral hernia has not been previously reported.
