Abstract

An endocrine cell carcinoma in the gallbladder of a 59-year-old woman is reported. The morphological features of this diagnosis are compared with 14 previously reported primary gallbladder carcinoid tumours that had metastasized. The histogenesis and current classification of endocrine cell tumours is discussed.
