Abstract
The incidental discovery of a gallbladder tumor (GBT) is rare, especially in the context of acute cholangitis. We report the case of an 72-year-old patient admitted to the emergency department with clinical symptoms of cholangitis. Abdominal ultrasound revealed a suspicious tissue mass in the gallbladder associated with a bile duct stone causing biliary dilatation. An emergency abdominal CT scan was performed for further characterization. This case highlights the importance of imaging in the differential diagnosis and assessment of biliary pathologies in elderly patients.
