    Abstract:
    A 78-year-old woman was found to have gallbladder wall thickening on ultrasonography during a routine health check-up and was referred to our clinic. On contrast-enhanced endoscopic ultrasonography, a papillary lesion measuring 14mm was detected in the fundus, which showed a heterogeneous enhancement at the early phase. She underwent cholecystectomy and gallbladder bed resection. Histological examination revealed that the tumor consisted of mucinous atypical cells, regularly arranged in a high-papillary architecture with delicate fibrovascular cores, which led to the diagnosis of intracholecystic papillary neoplasm of the gallbladder.
