Rare case of gallbladder papiloma in children
2016
Abstract The incidence of villous papilloma of the gallbladder is rarely found amongst children. We report on a 9-year old girl known case of metachromatic leukodystrophy presented with abdominal distension. A radiological examination revealed massive ascites and a papillary mass branching and projecting through the gallbladder fundus. Furthermore, a histopathological examination of the gallbladder showed villous papilloma with focal high-grade dysplasia and a single gallbladder stone. This report describes the rare presentation of a child with metachromatic leukodystrophy in the form of gallbladder polyp, intractable ascites, and a gallbladder stone.
