Abstract

Mirizzi syndrome (MS) has a low incidence in patients with gallbladder disease. The coexistence of gallbladder cancer seems to be more frequent in patients with MS than in those with gallstones only. We present two patients with MS type II and gallbladder cancer (stages T4N1M0 and T3NxMx). The etiopathogenic mechanisms, diagnostic methods and therapeutic options are discussed.
