  • Title: Diagnosis and management of gallbladder polyps.
    Author: Gallahan WC, Conway JD.
    Journal: Gastroenterol Clin North Am; 2010 Jun; 39(2):359-67, x. PubMed ID: 20478491.
    Abstract:
    Gallbladder polyps are frequently encountered on cross-sectional imaging, often in asymptomatic patients. Most are benign and of little clinical importance. However, some polyps do have a malignant potential. This article discusses the clinical presentation, diagnosis, and natural history of gallbladder polyps and risk factors for malignant polyps and indications for cholecystectomy.
