孤立性胆囊分枝杆菌感染是一种极为罕见的疾病。在文献中只有轶事报道是明显的。胆囊分枝杆菌感染的术前诊断是非常困难的。一个72岁的男性谁接受手术怀疑胆囊癌的情况下提出。癌症的诊断是基于放射学检查结果和正电子发射断层扫描(PET)上氟-18-氟-2-脱氧-D-葡萄糖(FDG)的异常摄取,同时随访结直肠癌。他接受了胆囊切除术和胆囊床切除术。组织学与胆囊分枝杆菌感染一致。
Isolated mycobacterial infection of gall bladder is an extremely rare entity. Only anecdotal reports are evident in the literature. A preoperative diagnosis of mycobacterial infection of gallbladder is therefore very difficult. The case of a 72-year-old male who underwent surgery for suspected gallbladder cancer is presented. The diagnosis of cancer was based on radiological findings and an abnormal uptake of fluorine-18-fluoro-2-deoxy-D-glucose (FDG) on positron emission tomography (PET) scan whilst being followed up for colorectal cancer. He underwent cholecystectomy and gallbladder bed resection. Histopathology was consistent with mycobacterial infection of the gallbladder.
