Özet
The differentiation of gallbladder adenomyomatosis from gallbladder carcinoma is important as both conditions may present with thickening of the gallbladder wall or as a focal mass. Identification of Rokitansky-Aschoff sinuses is the key feature in making an accurate diagnosis of gallbladder adenomyomatosis on imaging studies. The diagnosis of gallbladder adenomyomatosis can be made with accurately by multidetector computed tomography when the presence of Rokitansky-Aschoff sinuses (small cystic spaces within the thickened gallbladder wall) are noted. Herein we present multidetector computed tomography findings of a 27-year-old patient with gallbladder adenomyomatosis.
