ABSTRACT
During the postoperative follow-up for adrenal tumor for a 78-year-old male patient, a contrast-enhanced computed tomography scan revealed wall thickness with contrast effect in the cystic duct, enlarged lymph nodes along the ileocecal artery, and nodal shadow in the lower lobe of the left lung. First, the collected bile juice at ERC was submitted to cytology multiple times however, no malignant findings were noted. Next, a staging laparoscopy was performed; but the pathological findings of the enlarged lymph nodes and the abdominal lavage cytology showed no malignancy. A nodule in the lower lobe of the left lung was resected for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes, and the pathological diagnosis was primary adenocarcinoma of the lung. Finally the patient underwent exploratory laparotomy for diagnostic purposes. An intraoperative ultrasound- guided needle biopsy for mass lesion located in the medial section of the left liver was performed, and malignant lymphoma was suspected by the intraoperative pathological diagnosis. Cholecystectomy was performed to confirm the histological type, leading to the diagnosis of diffuse large B cell lymphoma. After surgery, the patient underwent 6 courses of rituximab plus CHOP therapy, and the bile duct stricture was improved.
