Overview
Surgery is the only mainstay of treatment for gallbladder cancer.
Surgery
- Surgical intervention is not recommended for the management of gallbladder cancer
- Complete surgical tumour resection is the only curative treatment but is mostly challenging because of the anatomically postion of the gallbladder
- Glenn and Hays was first proposed ''radical cholecystectomy'' in 1954 in which along with the gallbaldder a small rim of the liver poarenchyma and lymphatic tissue were excised [1]
- in 1982 An “extended radical cholecystectomy” was proposed in which lymphatic tissue, posterosuperior head of the pancreas, common hepatic artery, gallbladder and a rim of liver parenchyma are excised
- During the surgery morbidity and mortality were increased by incising the gallbladder or spilling its contents.
- Generally open procedure is recommended rather than laparoscopic procedure[2]
