Hallazgos clínicos e histopatológicos en pacientes con adenomiomatosis vesicular / Clinical and histopathological findings in patients with gallblader adenomyomatosis

Objetivo: El objetivo del estudio es describir la presentación clínica e histopatológica de la adenomiomatosis vesicular en una serie de pacientes colecistectomizados. Material y método: Entre el 1 de enero del 2010 y el 30 abril del 2015 se realizaron 6.957 colecistectomías, diagnosticándose adenomiomatosis en 95 de las vesículas extirpadas (1,4%). Se describen los hallazgos clínicos e histopatológicos en estos pacientes. Resultados: En 53 pacientes (55,8%) se presentó dolor abdominal. Alteraciones histológicas concomitantes se presentaron en la mucosa vesicular de 34 pacientes (35,8%), siendo la metaplasia pilórica la más frecuente (21%); y en 8 pacientes (8,4%) se presentó displasia de alto y bajo grado. Las patologías asociadas más frecuentes fueron colelitiasis 82,1% y colecistitis crónica 85,3%. Conclusiones: En la serie estudiada se observaron diversas alteraciones histológicas, incluyendo la displasia de alto grado. La colelitiasis se presentó con una frecuencia elevada.

Aim: The aim of the study was to describe the clinical and histopathologic presentation of adenomyomatosis (ADM) of the gallbladder in a series of patients. Material and method: Between January 1, 2010 to April 30, 2015, 6957 patients underwent cholecystectomy. Among them, ADM was diagnosed in 95 of cholecystectomy specimens (1.4%). Clinical and pathological findings in these patients are described. Results: In 53 patients (55.8%) presented abdominal pain. Concomitant histological changes occurred in the gallbladder mucosa of 34 patients (35.8%), being the most frequent pyloric metaplasia (21%); and in 8 patients (8.4%) high-grade dysplasia and low-grade dysplasia was presented. The most frequent associated pathologies were cholelithiasis in 82.1%, and chronic cholecystitis in 85.3%. Conclusions: In this serie, various histological changes were observed, including high-grade dysplasia. Cholelithiasis was presented with high frequency.

Fundal Variant of Adenomyomatosis of the Gall Bladder: An Uncommon Entity.

Adenomyomatosis of the gallbladder is a benign and degenerative condition of the gallbladder. It is an incidental finding in gall bladder specimens resected for chronic cholecystitis or cholelithiasis. It frequently occurs after 3rd or 4th decade of life and is often an incidental finding in cholecystectomy specimens resected for chronic cholecystitis or cholelithiasis. Patients with adenomyomatosis are usually asymptomatic it can be classified into three types: Segmental, fundal and diffuse types. The fundal variant is uncommon compared to the other two types. Here, in we present a case of a fundal variant of adenomyomatosis of the gall bladder in a 65-year-old male patient.
