Abstract: Imaging plays a critical role in changing the treatment approach for accidentally discovered gallbladder carcinoma (GBC), particularly in determining the extent of disease and staging and guiding surgical and therapeutic decisions. 1 A 62-year-old female patient initially presented with constipation. An abdominal ultrasound scan reveals an incidental large, lobulated mass in the gallbladder. Further imaging with triphasic CT and MRCP was recommended to confirm the diagnosis and evaluate the extent of disease spread. Follow-up CT scans were performed to monitor postoperative recovery and chemotherapy progress.
