ABSTRACT
A 78-year-old male with high-risk surgical presented severe acute cholecystitis and required cholecystostomy. The patient was referred later for assessment of the surgical treatment. A cholangio-MRI revealed a lesion on the gallbladder fundus with hepatic lesions suggestive of metastatic gallbladder carcinoma, which was confirmed in the histological analysis. The tumor progressed despite the chemotherapy through the cholecystostomy tract and developed peritoneal carcinomatosis. The patient did not respond to chemotherapy and he died 12 months later. (AU)
