Abstract

Signet ring cell carcinoma of the gallbladder is a rare variant of adenocarcinoma of the gallbladder. CT findings of signet ring cell carcinoma have been rarely reported. However, to our knowledge, signet ring cell carcinoma of the gallbladder with intramural tumoral calcifications has not been reported. Here, we present a case of mucin-producing signet ring cell carcinoma of the gallbladder which appeared as low attenuated diffuse gallbladder wall thickening with intramural calcifications and metastatic conglomerated lymphadenopathy.
