[A Case of Adenocarcinoma of Duct of Luschka].

A 75-year-old man was transferred to our hospital with a diagnosis of acute cholecystitis. On next day, a laparoscopic cholecystectomy was performed. Histologic examination confirmed an adenocarcinoma arising from duct of Luschka. Patient underwent additional resection of the liver bed. No residual adenocarcinoma was seen in the surgical specimen. Adenocarcinoma of duct of Luschka is rare, but it is important during cholecystectomy to consider the presence of duct of Luschka, possibility of malignant disease and careful dissection of the gallbladder from its fossa staying close to the gallbladder wall.
