Villous tumours of the ampulla of Vater

We herein report a rare case of portsite metastasis of gallbladder carcinoma which occurred after laparoscopic cholecystectomy. A 64-year-old man underwent laparoscopic cholecystectomy at another hospital for symptomatic cholecystolithiasis. The histological examination revealed an adenocarcinoma of the gallbladder infiltrating the entire wall. Despite the physician's advice the patient refused any additional treatment. Thirteen months after surgery he visited our hospital because of a palpable mass at the scar of the right trocar incision. The nodule was removed and histological examination confirmed metastasis from the gallbladder carcinoma.
