Diagnosis in short

LM cholesterol clefts, granulomas
Site gallbladder

Clin. DDx gallbladder carcinoma, acute cholecystitis

Xanthogranulomatous cholecystitis, abbreviated XGC, is an uncommon pathology of the gallbladder.

General

Gross

Features:[5]

  • Wall thickening ~ 90% of cases.
  • Gallstones ~ 70% of cases.
  • +/-Infiltration of surrounding tissues (liver, fat).

Imaging:

  • Hypo-attenuated nodules in the gallbladder wall.[5]

Microscopic

Features:

GALLBLADDER, CHOLECYSTECTOMY:
- XANTHOGRANULOMATOUS CHOLECYSTITIS.
- CHOLELITHIASIS.

Micro

The sections show gallbladder wall with cholesterol clefts, multinucleated giant cells and mononuclear cells. No metaplasia, nuclear atypia or dysplasia is apparent.
