Özet
The nature of polypoid masses within the gallbladder is difficult to define preoperatively. Tumors larger than 1 cm in size are strongly related to malignancy, but they are not always primary tumors of the gallbladder. We present a patient who underwent radical surgery for renal cell carcinoma and the preoperative finding of a polypoid mass within the gallbladder turned out to be a metastatic lesion.
