Gallbladder cancer (GBC) is the most common cancer of the biliary tract, characterized by a very poor prognosis when diagnosed at advanced stages owing to its aggressive behaviour and limited therapeutic options. Early detection at a curable stage remains challenging because patients rarely exhibit symptoms; indeed, most GBCs are discovered ...

Gallbladder carcinoma (GBC) is the most common biliary epithelial malignancy, with an estimated incidence of 1.13 cases per 100,000 in the United States (Hundal and Shaffer in Clin Epidemiol 6:99-109, 2014 1; Henley et al. in Cancer Epidemiol Biomarkers Prev 24:1319-1326, 2015 2).

Gallbladder cancer (GBC) is the most common malignancy of the biliary tract and the fifth most common gastrointestinal (GI) cancer. In addition to global inter-country variations in incidence, large racial and ethnic variations have been noted within countries. High incidence rates of GBC have been described in North India, for example.

We have reported a case of primary carcinoma of the gallbladder and reviewed 42 other cases seen at the Marshall University School of Medicine affiliated hospitals over the last 27 years. Most of the patients were female (74.5%) and elderly (mean age 66.9 years), and had metastatic or locally invasive disease (79%); 95% had adenocarcinoma. Preoperative

However, before its wide-spread adoption to clinical practice, we feel a multicenterrandomize controlled trial of LPD vs OCD for

Amyloidosis of the gallbladder mimicking gallbladder cancer
Journal of Gastroenterology, 2007We report a rare case of amyloidosis of the gallbladder in a 63-year-old woman with a history of primary amyloidosis. The patient was asymptomatic. Blood chemistry and hematologic laboratory levels, as well as values for tumor markers, were unremarkable. Ultrasonography (US) of the abdomen showed a focal echogenic lesion (22 x 15 mm) in the body of the

Chemoradiotherapy in gallbladder cancer
Journal of Surgical Oncology, 2006AbstractGallbladder cancer (GC) is considered a rare disease associated with a poor prognosis. Unfortunately, the low number of cases makes the performance of trials addressing the role of adjuvant, neoadjuvant, and/or palliative therapy difficult. For a long time, the majority of trials were 5‐fluorouracil (5 FU)‐based, and results were uniformly poor.

The majority of patients with gallbladder cancer (GBC) have advanced disease at the time of diagnosis and are unresectable. Longterm survival is usually seen in a subset of patients with early GBC (EGBC)-cancer confined to the mucosa (pT1a) and muscularis (pT1b). Management guidelines of EGBC are not yet defined and are controversial.

Gallbladder cancer has a reputation for being aggressive and incurable. Single institution series, however, have defined successful management strategies in which the extent of resection is based on the stage of the tumor at presentation. Careful ultrasound screening for abnormalities in the gallbladder wall, and CA19-9 serum determination prior to ...

Treatment of gallbladder cancer
1994Although an uncommon malignancy, carcinoma of the gallbladder is the fifth most common cancer of the gastrointestinal tract and the most common cancer of the biliary tract [1]. The diagnosis of gallbladder carcinoma is made incidentally at the time of exploration in 1% of patients undergoing surgical treatment for cholelithiasis [1,2]. Carcinoma of the
