Abstract: BackgroundXanthogranulomatous cholecystitis is an inflammatory disease with pathologically distinct characteristics such as accumulation of lipid-laden macrophages, fibrous tissue, and acute and chronic inflammatory cells. It often involves adjacent organs and mimics gallbladder cancer. The purpose… read more here.

Abstract: Xanthogranulomatous cholecystitis (XGC) is an uncommon variant of chronic cholecystitis, characterized by focal or diffuse destructive inflammatory process. The importance of XGC is that it mimics gallbladder carcinoma (GBC) both preoperatively and intra-operatively, since it… read more here.

Abstract: Xanthogranulomatous cholecystitis (XGC) is a rare form of cholecystitis, characterized by the presence of xanthogranuloma, prominent yellow structures within the gallbladder wall that is very often lithiasic. When XGC presents in its pseudo-tumoral form with occasional… read more here.

Abstract: Background/Aim: Xanthogranulomatous cholecystitis (XGC) is a rare destructive inflammatory disease of the gallbladder. It is frequently misdiagnosed as gallbladder carcinoma (GBC) as it mimics latter with regard to clinical manifestations, imaging and intraoperative findings, often… read more here.
