Porcelain gallbladder (PG) is a chronic condition characterized by the calcification of gallbladder walls. It has been associated with an increased risk of coinciding with gallbladder cancer (GBC). A literature review, with emphasis on evidence, allowed for the detection of differences and restructurings in published topics such as: Definition, incidence, classification, and relationship with GBC. At the same time, advances in diagnostic methods and the role of surgery were identified. The objective of this manuscript was to present the existing and updated evidence between the years 2011 to 2023, regarding the identified topics, which is important in a scenario of elderly patients, with increasingly numerous comorbidities, and potentially carriers of PG.
