Abstract: Gallbladder neuroendocrine carcinoma is a very rare entity, accounting for <0.2% of all neuroendocrine
tumours [1]. Of the cases described in the literature, the initial presentation is usually locally advanced or
even with disseminated disease [2]. In this paper we report the case of a 43-year-old female patient with an
incidental diagnosis of gallbladder neuroendocrine carcinoma. Although clinical presentation is the most
common, it is a very rare condition that poses a therapeutic and prognostic challenge.Keywords: Gallbladder tumors, neuroendocrine tumors, small-Cell neuroendocrine carcinoma
