Hyalinizing cholecystitis is a rare subtype of chronic cholecystitis in which the gallbladder tissue is replaced with hyaline sclerosis, more or less, and has a characteristic intraoperative appearance. Preoperative diagnosis is hard to establish. The entity is strongly associated with gallbladder carcinoma. Therefore, the pathologist should perform a thorough microscopic analysis. We present a case of an unusual intraoperative finding in a male patient with chronic cholecystitis which was proved to be a hyalinizing cholecystitis.
玻璃样变性胆囊炎是一种罕见的慢性胆囊炎亚型,其中胆囊组织或多或少地被玻璃样硬化所取代,具有特征性的术中表现。术前诊断很难确立。该病变与胆囊癌密切相关。因此,病理学家应进行全面的显微镜分析。我们报告一例男性慢性胆囊炎患者术中出现异常发现的病例,经证实为玻璃样变性胆囊炎。
