We describe a rare case of a benign pseudotumorous lesion (fibroangiomyomat ous hyperplasia with elastosis) in the gallbladder in a 44-year-old Japanes e woman, and discuss the rarity of elastosis in the gallbladder. To our kno wledge, this case may be the first report of a pseudotumorous lesion of the gallbladder with elastosis in Japan.
