| Sumario: | Gallbladder adenomyomatosis is a rare condition that is predominantly seen in adults, and only a few cases have been described in the pediatric population. Although it is generally benign, it may present a diagnostic challenge for physicians. Advances in imaging have led to an increase in its detection.

We present a case of a 6-week-old infant boy who was found to have gallbladder adenomyomatosis. |
