Department of Hepatobiliary and Pancreatic Surgery, East Hospital of Yantai Mountain Hospital, Yantai, China.
Objective: This study was aimed at ascertaining the application value of abnormal prothrombin (PIVKA-II) and carbohydrate antigen 125 (CA125) in gallbladder cancer (GBC) diagnosis.
Methods: A total of 70 GBC patients, 70 patients with benign gallbladder diseases (gallbladder stones and gallbladder polyps), and 70 normal health examination people were selected as the malignant, benign, and normal groups, respectively. The differences in serum levels and positive rates of PIVKA-II and CA125 were compared.

Metachromatic leukodystrophy (MLD) is a progressive demyelinating disorder resulting from the toxic accumulation of sulfatides. The stereotyped neurodegeneration of MLD is well understood, and cases are categorized into subtypes by age at neurologic onset: late infantile (LI), juvenile (J), and adult. The systemic burden of disease, such as gallbladder involvement, however, is less well characterized.

The Society of Radiologists in Ultrasound (SRU) issued guidelines in 2021 for managing incidentally detected gallbladder polyps, aiming to balance follow-up with avoiding overtreatment. There is variable adherence to these guidelines in radiology reports, however, which makes it difficult for the clinician to pursue appropriate follow-up for the patient.

Heterotopia or ectopic tissue refers to the presence of normal tissue in an abnormal location, away from its typical anatomic site. While heterotopia is not uncommon, its occurrence in the gallbladder is quite rare, and even more unusual is the presence of gastric heterotopia within the gallbladder. This case report describes a 41-year-old female patient with oxyntic-type heterotopic gastric mucosa in the proximal body of the gallbladder.
