Title:

The Misaligned Clinical Course Due to a Missed Mismatch Repair–Deficient Gallbladder Carcinoma

Published date:

Excerpt:
We introduce an initially missed D-MMR gallbladder carcinoma in a 50-year-old woman... immunostaining uncovered loss of MSH6 and MSH2 but retained MLH1 and PMS2 in the tumor (Figure 292). Molecular testing confirmed D-MMR and further detected KRAS G12D mutation. These findings led to pembrolizumab-based management and after 6 cycles, imaging studies confirmed the residual tumor had disappeared. The patient remains disease free 1 year later.
