Article Synopsis
- The study focuses on the impact of the geometric location of gallbladder cancer within the organ, comparing tumors at the fundal end versus the cystic ductal end.
- It analyzed oncologic outcomes in 575 patients, revealing that those with cancers at the cystic ductal end had significantly lower rates of recurrence-free survival and overall survival.
- Among stage 1 patients, those with cancers at the cystic ductal end also experienced recurrences, highlighting the importance of cancer location in treatment planning and prognosis.
Xanthogranulomatous cholecystitis in a patient with ulcerative colitis and primary sclerosing cholangitis: A case report.

Chronic gallbladder disease due to xanthogranulomatous cholecystitis is uncommon, and its symptoms are generally vague. While there is no firm evidence to link xanthogranulomatous cholecystitis to primary sclerosing cholangitis or ulcerative colitis. The patient is a 41-year-old male with a history of ulcerative colitis, primary sclerosing cholangitis, and biliary stenting who complained of symptoms of anorexia, jaundice, and pruritus.

Xanthogranulomatous inflammation (XGI) is a rare, benign condition that can affect several organs, including the gallbladder, kidney, skin, gastrointestinal tract, lymph nodes, and soft tissues. It is often misdiagnosed as a malignancy. In this report, we present the case of a 79-year-old male who presented with persistent jaundice for 11 months.

A 70-year-old man with a liver tumor was pathologically diagnosed with multicystic biliary hamartoma with xanthogranulomatous inflammation. Plain CT revealed an inhomogeneous low-density liver tumor, measuring 43 × 35 mm. Dynamic contrast-enhanced CT revealed a cyst, measuring approximately 15 mm, with a ring-shaped enhancement, within the tumor.

Introduction: Xanthogranulomatous cholangitis is an extremely rare diagnosis and is believed to be an extension of xanthogranulomatous cholecystitis, a benign inflammatory process characterized by lipid-laden foamy macrophages (called "xanthoma cells") occurring in a background of chronic inflammation consisting of lymphocytes, plasma cells, and eosinophils. Here, we report a case of xanthogranulomatous cholangitis mimicking cholangiocarcinoma.
Case Presentation: A 72 year old male with history of recurrent cholangitis had preoperative workup highly suggestive of intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma.
