Abstract

A 96-year-old woman was brought to our hospital for epigastric pain. Abdominal contrast-enhanced CT and MRCP showed wall thickness of the fundus and extravasation in the gallbladder. With a diagnosis of gallbladder hemorrhage from the tumors, we performed laparoscopic cholecystectomy. The histopathological diagnosis was gallbladder cancer. Herein, we report on this case and also provide a literature review.
