Abstract
We report a case in which laparoscopical wide excision of a cholangiocarcinoma located in the gallbladder During the operation there was no gross evidence of distant metastases except from local invasion to the liver. The tumor was reported to be stage V, anaplastic adenocarcinoma and the surgical borders to be tumor free.
Although gallbladder carcinoma was reported to be a contraindication for laparoscopic cholecystectomy in the early literature, the technique was successfully performed for an adequate treatment.
