title: Crohn's disease of the gall bladder.
abstract: A 64 year old man with known enteric Crohn's disease developed a granulomatous cholecystitis in which the histological features were identical to those seen in sites conventionally affected by this disease. Extraintestinal granulomatous lesions are rare in Crohn's disease and the present case is reported because of its apparent uniqueness.
