A case of pure endophytic squamous cell carcinoma of the gallbladder: a rare entity with aggressive behaviour.
[carcinoma of the gallbladder]
Pure
squamous
cell
carcinoma
of
gallbladder
is
a
rare
tumor
accounting
for
only
3
%
of
the
malignancies
of
gallbladder
.
A
35
-
year
-old
female
presented
with
pain
and
lump
in
right
hypochondrium
.
Ultrasonography
and
computed
tomography
revealed
a
thickened
gallbladder
filled
with
stones
without
any
obvious
growth
and
a
large
hepatic
mass
.
Histologically
,
a
pure
type
of
well
differentiated
squamous
cell
carcinoma
of
gallbladder
was
diagnosed
after
excluding
all
possible
differential
diagnoses
owing
to
different
histogenesis
and
aggressive
biological
behaviour
.
Early
diagnosis
is
the
most
important
parameter
for
improving
the
survival
indices
among
the
patients
with
squamous
cell
carcinoma
of
the
gallbladder
.
