    Abstract:
    Experience in diagnosing several cases of primary carcinoma of the cholecyst echographically in reported. The most important ultrasonic characteristics in relation to staging of the lesion are reviewed. It is seen that echographic features always correlate with surgical findings, confirming the diagnostic accuracy of the method which permits morphofunctional as well as structural evaluation. At this time echography seems to be the most rational tool for efficient diagnosis, a step forward in ensuring timely surgery and the improvement of long term prospects for the condition.
