REDONDO, Katherine et al. Adenosquamous carcinoma of the gallbladder, a rare histological variant. rev. colomb. cir. [online]. 2015, vol.30, n.3, pp.246-252. ISSN 2011-7582.

Adenosquamous carcinoma of the gallbladder is a little-known and infrequent variant of carcinoma, and its etiology and behavior are not completely known. In this review we present a patient of 45 years with a primary adenosquamous carcinoma of the gallbladder, a case that is reported for being a diagnostic challenge for an uncommon entity, which is considered more aggressive and of worse prognosis than the adenocarcinoma in its classical presentation.

Keywords : gallbladder; gallbladder neoplasms; carcinoma; carcinoma; adenosquamous.
