  • Title: [Results of the surgical treatment of gallbladder carcinomas].
    Author: Rassek D, Straub D, Sons HU, Stock W.
    Journal: Chirurg; 1985 Jul; 56(7):440-4. PubMed ID: 4042758.
    Abstract:
    A retrospective study of 44 patients with carcinoma of the gallbladder is presented. It is noticeable that although the prognosis for advanced carcinoma of the gallbladder is poor, that of the early stages (stage I-III) is relatively better. In no case diagnosis was made preoperatively. In 86% gallstones were found. There has been no valid staging for tumors of the gallbladder or any generally accepted standardized therapy. Attention is drawn to the possibility of improving the results of therapy at the early stages by extended radical operation and to the necessity for early operative treatment of gallstone disease.
