Background The increasing trend of laparoscopic procedures has made cholecystectomies one of the most common surgical specimens received for histopathological evaluation. This has also led to an increasing trend of finding incidental gallbladder malignancies for a presumed benign disease. The present study describes the histopathological spectrum of neoplastic lesions of the gallbladder along with the historadiological correlation with special emphasis on incidental gallbladder carcinomas (IGBC). Materials and methods All the cholecystectomies received over a span of two and a half years were studied. Demographic details, imaging findings, gross features, and microscopic findings of premalignant and malignant lesions were noted. Special stains were done as and when required. Results Of the 1253 cholecystectomies received during the study period, 50 gallbladders (3.9%) showed neoplastic pathology and were included in the present study. The age range was 40 to 60 years with female predominance. Ultrasonography revealed nonspecific wall thickness in both premalignant and incidental gallbladder carcinomas. Gallstones were seen in 74% of the cases (37/50). Gross and imaging findings in 17 (34%) of the malignant cases were in concordance with microscopic features, whereas the dysplastic lesions (21) and IGBC cases showed evidence of chronic cholecystitis on the same. Microscopic examination revealed focal dysplasia (low and high grade) in 21/50 (42%) cases. Invasive malignancy was seen in 28/50 (56%) of the cases, of which 11 cases (22%) were IGBC. Pancreaticobiliary type of adenocarcinoma was the most common morphology seen in almost all the cases. There was also one case each of intracholecystic papillary neoplasm (ICPN) and carcinosarcoma. Conclusion GBC is an unusual malignancy and its preoperative diagnosis is not so definitive. The incidental form of GBC presents as a radiological disguise and a histopathological surprise. Hence, the present study warrants a complete and scrupulous histopathological examination of all the cholecystectomy specimens for proper and further management of the case.
