[Melanoma with gallbladder metastasis. Report of a case].

The authors present the case of a 28-years-old male on whom a colostomy was performed due to a biliar colic and radiological-excluded vesicle condition. The condition resulted from metastasis in bile vesicle and lymph node adjacent to a scalp melanoma which had been extirpated one year earlier. Among patients with melanoma and gallbladder symptoms, the biliar symptomology--biliar colics and pronounced cholecystitis should provoke thoughts regarding the metastatic compromise of the vesicle due to melanoma.
