Abstract:
We report a patient with symptomatic biliary disease and who was diagnosed by ultrasound to have a large polypoid gallbladder lesion. Histopathology revealed adenoma in combination with carcinoma in situ. The evidence for the adenoma-carcinoma sequence in gallbladder cancer and diagnostic and therapeutic implications are discussed.
