Abstract:
Primary carcinoma of the gallbladder is an uncommon and aggressive malignancy. Furthermore, double primary cancer of the gallbladder and cystic duct is extremely rare and few such cases have been reported. So, we report here on the case of double primary cancer of the gallbladder and cystic duct, which was pathologically confirmed after an operation, and we discuss the US, CT and ERCP findings.
