Аннотация
BACKGROUND: Gallbladder mucocele, also known as gallbladder hydrops, is a rare condition characterized by the distention of the gallbladder due to the accumulation of fluid or mucus within its lumen, primarily attributed to obstruction arising from a gallstone in the cystic duct or gallbladder neck.
CASE SUMMARY: We present a case of a 67-year-old woman with an incidentally discovered gallbladder mucocele, shedding light on the clinical presentation, causes, and histopathological findings. We performed a literature review including an analysis of 27 case reports, revealing the diverse spectrum of causative factors, clinical manifestations, diagnosis, and management.
CONCLUSION: This study underscores the importance of considering alternative diagnoses and highlights the significance of imaging techniques in narrowing down the differential diagnosis and histopathologic examination for a definitive diagnosis.
