Xanthogranulomatous cholecystitis (XGC) is a rare type of cholecystitis that, despite being benign poses diagnostic challenges due to its low prevalence and need for consensus on diagnostic criteria. Consequently, distinguishing XGC from gallbladder cancer (GBC) is challenging, leading to clinical misdiagnoses. This article presents a case where a patient initially diagnosed with GBC was later found to have XGC.
黄色肉芽肿性胆囊炎(XGC)是一种罕见的胆囊炎类型,尽管它是良性的,但由于其发病率低且诊断标准需要达成共识,因此在诊断上存在挑战。因此,区分XGC与胆囊癌(GBC)具有挑战性,这导致了临床误诊。本文介绍了一例最初被诊断为GBC的患者后来被发现患有XGC的病例。
