Abstract

Adrenal metastases have commonly been reported in a wide variety of cancers but not in gallbladder cancer. We here present a case of a 45-year-old male patient with gallbladder carcinoma where left adrenal metastasis was detected on staging F-FDG PET/CT. This was confirmed histopathologically. F-FDG PET/CT can have a significant impact on management of patients with gallbladder carcinoma by demonstrating rare sites of metastasis.
