It accentuates the essential role of a multidisciplinary approach, urging the need for continuous research endeavors to further comprehend and enhance the treatment methodologies for this rare and complex malignancy. |\n\n1. Introduction  \nThe field of oncology is witnessing the emergence of a unique entity, carcinoma of the cystic duct, which is a rare and aggressive cancer variant within the biliary system. The propensity for localized invasion and extensive metastasis requires rigorous investigation. This analysis comprehensively examined recent clinical cases, addressing diagnostic challenges, strategic interventions, and clinical implications.  \nPrimary cystic duct carcinoma is a rare type of cancer that arises within a narrow range of prevalence (0.03–0.05 %) and holds a  \nsignificant position among extrahepatic biliary neoplasms (2.6–12.6 % incidence), as determined by Farrar's diagnostic criteria [1–3]. Gastrointestinal malignancies reveal extrahepatic biliary duct pathologies (2–3.6 % incidence), where primary cystic duct carcinoma arises as an enigmatic entity, documented in fewer than 70 cases worldwide since 2017 [4]. With a preference in East Asia and scarcity in the Indian subcontinent, we present a case of laparoscopic cholecystectomy [4].
