ABSTRACT
Squamous cell carcinoma of the biliary tract is a rare disease, comprising just 2% of all biliary malignancies. The exact etiology is poorly understood but believed to be secondary to chronic inflammation. We present a case of a patient with recurrent cholecystitis and cholangitis who developed invasive biliary squamous cell carcinoma.
