An unusual gall-bladder polyp - site of metastatic renal cell carcinoma: a case report

We report the case of a 64 year old woman who presented with symptomatology of gallstone disease but was radiologically shown to have a polyp within the gallbladder. Upon resection this was shown to be a metastasis from renal cell carcinoma for which she had had a nephrectomy six years previously.
