Evaluation on Incidental Gallbladder Carcinoma in Eastern India: A Hospital Based Study
Journal Title: Journal of Medical Science And clinical Research - Year 2016, Vol 4, Issue 12
Abstract
GBC is the most common cancer of the biliary tract Worldwide. Cholecystectomy is one of the most common abdominal surgeries. Gallbladder malignancy is a lethal disease and is the fifth commonest malignancy in the gastrointestinal tract. A detailed clinical history and thorough physical examination was done in all cases. Routine ultrasonography and blood investigations were done. Both open and laparoscopic techniques were used in surgery. GBC is not an uncommon clinical entity in our Indian scenario, unlike western countries. It is predominantly a disease of females. Incidental gallbladder carcinoma is a nightmare for patients after cholecystectomy. Despite careful preoperative investigations and meticulous gross examination, a significant number of incidental carcinoma cases are still missed.
