Optimizing Lymph Node Staging in Gallbladder Cancer: A Cutoff of 11 Nodes for Accurate Staging and Improved Survival

Journal of Hepato-Biliary-Pancreatic Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Gallbladder cancer (GBC) is an aggressive malignancy in which lymph node (LN) status is a key prognostic factor. Adequate LN retrieval is essential for accurate nodal staging. This study aimed to identify an LN threshold that reduces false node‐negative (false N0) rates and to evaluate its association with overall survival (OS) as ...
