Gall bladder carcinoma: stroke as first manifestation.
Clinical presentation of gall bladder carcinoma with distant metastasis is extremely rare. We report a 73-year-old lady who presented with right-sided hemiparesis. CT scan showed a left frontal lobe tumor. Excision of the tumor resulted in improvement of neurological functions. Further workup revealed a gall bladder mass with liver nodules.
