Abstract
Carcinosarcoma of Gall bladder is an uncommon neoplasm, characterized by malignancy of both epithelial and mesenchymal components. Its diagnosis is based on presence and intermingling of these two components. We report a case of 52 year old female patient with complaint of pain and lump in abdomen. CT scan examination showed mass in gall bladder with presence of stones. The patient was treated with cholecystectomy. Histopathological examination of gall bladder mass showed two components consisting of adenocarcinoma and spindle cell sarcoma of gall bladder origin, features consistent with carcinosarcoma. The diagnosis was further confirmed by expression of cytokeratin and vimentin by the respective tumor cells on immunohistochemistry.
