RESUMEN

Xanthogranulomatous cholecystitis is a destructive inflammatory disease of the gallbladder, rarely involving adjacent organs and mimicking an advanced gallbladder carcinoma. The diagnosis is usually possible only after pathological examination. We are reporting two of such rare cases in female patients attending our institute. In both patients xanthogranulomatous cholecystitis was diagnosed on histopathology.
