ABSTRACT
A 77-year-old woman was referred to our hospital because of general malaise and appetite loss for 3 months. Contrast-enhanced computed tomography showed a gallbladder tumor and multiple tumors in the liver. Endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration (EUS-FNA) was performed for the gallbladder tumor. Histopathologically, the tumor was diagnosed as poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma. There were no complications of EUS-FNA. While waiting for the histopathological results of EUS-FNA, her appetite loss gradually became severe, so she declined systemic chemotherapy. She was discharged from the hospital 15 days after EUS-FNA. EUS-FNA for gallbladder lesions is useful when pathological diagnosis is required.
