  ABSTRACT: The cutaneous extension of gallbladder thyroid carcinoma is uncommon and is among the aggressive forms of the disease. We are reporting the case of a woman of 54 that shows acute festered thyroiditis worsened by a necrotic ulcer wound on the skin lasting 3 weeks amid a big neglected hetero-multinodular goitre, evolving since 20 years. The anatomopathological test showed a gallbladder thyroid carcinoma of the thyroid with severe inflammation. The treatment consisted of a complete thyroidectomy with recurrent bilateral dredging. There was a favourable evolution. Gallbladder carcinoma, in its aggressive aspect, may be linked to the occurrence of acute festered thyroiditis. Therefore, the prognosis of our patient was favourable.
