Abstract

We report a 64-year-old woman with double cancer of the gallbladder and the common bile duct associated with anomalous junction of the pancreaticobiliary ductal system. Eleven previous cases have been reported to date. From analysis of the 12 cases reviewed, including our patient, double cancer of the gallbladder and the common bile duct accompanied by anomalous junction of the pancreaticobiliary ductal system is characterized by the predominance of well-differentiated and superficial cancer.
