Abstract: Follicular dendritic cell sarcoma (FDCS) is a rare malignant neoplasm for which a standardized treatment approach has yet to be established. The prevailing therapeutic strategy typically involves resection followed by adjuvant chemotherapy or radiation. This case report details the long-term follow-up of a 59-year-old Chinese male diagnosed with gallbladder FDCS and liver metastases. The patient received a combination therapy of sintilimab and anlotinib, resulting in a substantial partial response (PR) lasting for a noteworthy duration of 30 months. Notably, this is the first documented instance of gallbladder FDCS with liver metastases being treated with PD-1 antibody and antiangiogenic agents as first-line therapy. These findings suggest that this treatment regimen may offer a potential therapeutic option for patients with gallbladder FDCS and liver metastases, with a duration of PR lasting up to 30 months.
