Journal Title: Journal of Advanced Medical and Dental Sciences Research - Year 2017, Vol 5, Issue 12

Abstract

Background: Gallbladder removal is one of the most commonly performed surgical procedures. It is one of the most minimally invasive techniques called as Cholecystectomy. There are reports which showed that gallbladder cancer was incidentally diagnosed during or after laparoscopic cholecystectomy performed for gallstone disease. Aim: To evaluate the impact of incidental gallbladder cancer on surgically treated cholecystectomy patients. Material and Method: This study included all laparoscopic cholecystectomy patients. Patients with incidentally diagnosed gallbladder cancer were recorded, and the clinical and demographic characteristics of these patients were reviewed. Age group selected for the study was 40 to 80 years. Sample included in study were 80 in number. Result: In our study out of 80 cases examined, 78 were included in the study. We observed 35 cases were diagnosed preoperatively and 43 cases were diagnosed postoperatively. Polyposis lesion was found in 74.2% cases i.e. n= 26 and 9 cases reported non Polyposis lesion i.e. 25.7%. Whereas in Group 2 i.e. suspected diagnosis of gall bladder cancer 43 cases were observed (55.1%). Conclusion: In our study we didn’t observed an increase of incidentally diagnosed gallbladder cancer in patients with increase in laparoscopic cholecystectomies. Early diagnosis and accurate surgical treatment are essential factors to obtain good results in incidental gallbladder cancer.
