Large cell neuroendocrine carcinoma of the gallbladder is an extremely rare tumour with aggressive behaviour and a bad prognosis. Here, we report a case of a 65-year-old lady suspected of carcinoma of the gallbladder and underwent extended cholecystectomy. The histopathology report revealed neuroendocrine carcinoma of a large cell type of gall bladder infiltrating the liver and three periportal and pericholedochal lymph nodes. She had an uneventful perioperative period and was doing good till 6 months of follow-up. The only potentially curative treatment for large cell neuroendocrine carcinoma of the gallbladder is aggressive surgical resection, owing to its aggressive behaviour and bad prognosis.

胆囊大细胞神经内分泌癌是一种极为罕见的肿瘤,具有侵袭性和不良预后。在此,我们报告一例 65 岁女性疑似胆囊癌,并接受了扩大胆囊切除术。组织病理学报告显示,为胆囊大细胞神经内分泌癌,浸润肝脏和三个肝门及胆总管周围淋巴结。她围手术期无并发症,随访至 6 个月时恢复良好。由于其侵袭性行为和不良预后,对于胆囊大细胞神经内分泌癌,唯一潜在的治愈性治疗方法是积极的手术切除。
