ABSTRACT

The communication of a newly diagnosed case was carried out at the "Joaquín Albarrán" Surgical Clinical Teaching Hospital in Havana. The case presented corresponded with a 73-year-old male patient who in the autopsy study revealed the presence of a porcelain gallbladder, which, according to the literature, its identification is an incidental diagnosis during the study of the patient for another condition, mostly neoplastic or at autopsy. His relationship with gallbladder cancer is controversial. The porcelain gallbladder is an entity characterized by intramural gallbladder calcification, has a reported incidence of 0.06 to 0.8% of the cholecystectomies performed. We reviewed the literature in databases, MEDLINE, PubMed, ELSEVIER and SciELO, with a total of 26 publications found between 1999 and 2018.
