[Hemoperitoneum from Spontaneous Rupture of a Metastatic Abdominal Lymph Node in Gallbladder Cancer: A Case Report].
Korean Journal of Gastroenterology = Taehan Sohwagi Hakhoe Chi 2017 January 26
Gallbladder (GB) cancer is asymptomatic in nature, making diagnosis and treatment difficult. The lymph node status is the strongest predictor of long-term survival for patients with GB cancer, and a complete removal of regional lymph nodes is important for patients undergoing radical resection of GB cancer. Unfortunately, lymph node metastases are common in the early stages of GB cancer. However, there have only been a few cases describing the symptoms or complications of metastatic lymph nodes in patients with GB cancer. Although hemoperitoneum caused by metastatic lymph nodes can occur with several cancers, it is very rare. To the best of our knowledge, hemoperitoneum from spontaneous ruptures of metastatic lymph nodes with GB cancer has not yet been reported. Herein, we describe such a case in a patient newly diagnosed with GB cancer.
