Coexistent gallbladder carcinoma in Mirizzi syndrome
Abstract
A 52-year-old woman presented with right upper quadrant pain and obstructive jaundice. Computed tomographic scan showed Mirizzi syndrome type 1 and a thickened and calcified gallbladder wall, raising the possibility of coexistent gallbladder carcinoma that was later confirmed on histology post-cholecystectomy.
