title: Hemobilia due to intracholecystic papillary neoplasm.
abstract: We report the case of a 39-year-old patient who presented an episode of upper gastrointestinal bleeding due to hemobilia. The imaging tests showed the gallbladder occupied by solid tissue, with a diagnosis of intracholecystic papillary neoplasm after the cholecystectomy. The intracholecystic papillary neoplasm of the gallbladder is a newly established entity and it is considered a subtype of intraductal papillary neoplasm of the bile duct. Its presentation in the form of hemobilia has barely been described in the literature.
