Creation of a cholecystojejunostomy has been recommended as one option in the palliation of biliary obstruction due to pancreatic carcinoma.However, it was a technique used for biliary drainage for acute cholecystitis a long time ago.We describe a patient who underwent a cholecystojejunostomy for acute cholecystitis 50 years prior to presentation, and then revealed a gallbladder carcinoma.
