摘要
胆囊癌是一种罕见且常被忽视的引起右上腹部疼痛的原因。诊断延误是常见的,因为临床特征与慢性胆囊炎相混淆。我们报告两例胆囊癌不与胆结石发生在两个中年妇女。据我们所知,这是尼日利亚首次报道胆囊癌与胆石症无关。我们的结论是,在出现体重减轻和慢性胆囊炎综合征的患者中应该有很高的怀疑指数。关键词:胆囊癌,胆囊炎,根治性胆囊切除术尼日利亚外科科学杂志Vol. 17 (2) 2007: pp. 113-115
Gallbladder Carcinoma Unassociated With Cholelithiasis
Carcinoma of the gallbladder is a rare and often over looked cause of right upper abdominal quadrant pain. Diagnostic delay is common as the clinical features are confused with those of chronic cholecystitis. We report two cases of gallbladder carcinoma not associated with gallstones occurring in two middle-aged women.
To our knowledge this is the first report in Nigeria of gallbladder carcinoma unassociated with cholelithiasis. We conclude that there should be a high index of suspicion in patients presenting with weight loss and chronic cholecystitis syndrome. Keywords : Gallbladder Carcinoma, Cholecystitis, Radical Cholecystectomy. Nigerian Journal of Surgical Sciences Vol. 17 (2) 2007: pp. 113-115
