Abstract
GALLBLADDER NEOPLASM HAS THE BIGEST FREQUENCY OF EXTRAHEPATIC BILE DUCT TUMOURS, 80% OF THEM DEVELOPS ON LITHIC VESICLES. WE PRESENT A CLINICAL CASE OF A 72 -YEAR-OLD PATIENT, WHO WAS REFERRED TO HOSPITAL DUE TO ABDOMINAL AND RIGHT HYPOCHONDRIUM PAIN, LOSS OF APPETITE, FEVER, CHILLS, JAUNDICE AND WEIGHT LOSS, WITH NORMAL LABORATORY RESULTS. EXPLORATORY MEDIAN LAPAROTOMY WAS P ERFORMED, WHO REVEALED A LARGE, WELL - DELIMITED, HARD TUMOUR, OF 10/8/6 CM THAT WAS REMOVED ALONG WITH ALL GREAT OMENTUM. THE ADVANCED STAGE OF THE GALLBLADDER CANCER AND THE PRESENTS OF TWO OTHER TYPES OF CARCINOMA AT ONE ELDERLY PERSON HAVE LED TO AN INC OMPLETE CHOLECYSTECTOMY DRAINED ON KEHR TUBE. THE LATE SIMPTOMATOLOGY CAUSED BY THE ADVANCED STAGE OF THE GALLBLADDER CANCER LED TO THE DISCOVERY OF THE OTHER TWO TUMORS (APPENDICULAR MUCOCELE, EPIPLOIC HEMANGIOSARCOMA), ASYMPTOMATIC AT THE TIME OF DIAGNOSIS.
