    Summary

    Adenomyomatosis, a rare gallbladder condition, is diagnosed preoperatively via ultrasonography. Treatment involves cholecystectomy, with histology confirming the diagnosis and ruling out malignancy.

    Area of Science:

    • Gastroenterology
    • Pathology
    • Surgical Oncology

    Context:

    • Adenomyomatosis is a rare, benign gallbladder disease.
    • Characterized by epithelial proliferation and mucosal pouches through the gallbladder wall.
    • Presents in diffuse, segmental, or localized forms, with diffuse being the rarest.

    Purpose:

    • To present four cases of diffuse adenomyomatosis.
    • To highlight preoperative diagnosis using ultrasonography.
    • To discuss treatment outcomes and confirm diagnosis histologically.

    Summary:

    • Four patients (1 female, 3 males, aged 27-41) with diffuse adenomyomatosis experienced dull right upper quadrant pain.
    • Preoperative diagnosis was consistently achieved through ultrasonography.
    • All patients underwent cholecystectomy, with histology confirming adenomyomatosis and excluding carcinoma. One patient also underwent procedures for chronic pancreatitis.

    Impact:

    • Ultrasonography is effective for preoperative diagnosis of diffuse adenomyomatosis.
    • Cholecystectomy is a successful treatment modality.
    • Adenomyomatosis is a benign condition, rarely associated with premalignant changes.
