title: [A Case of Gallbladder Carcinoma and Breast Cancer Associated with Pancreaticobiliary Maljunction].
abstract: We report a case of gallbladder cancer and right breast cancer associated with pancreaticobiliary maljunction.The patient was a 74-year-old woman who presented with abdominal pain due to cholecystitis.Abdominal CT detected a gallbladder tumor and right breast tumor.Enhanced CT and MRCP examination revealed gallbladder cancer and right breast cancer associated with pancreaticobiliary maljunction.We performed a gallbladder bed resection, bile duct resection, and right total mastectomy.The histopathological diagnosis of the gallbladder was moderately tubular adenocarcinoma and that of the breast tumor was scirrhous carcinoma.The patient remains recurrence-free 8 months after surgery.
