  • Title: [Gallbladder carcinoma. Our experience].
    Author: Gentilli S, Fronticelli CM, Ferrero A, Quiriconi F, Corradino R.
    Journal: Minerva Chir; 1996 Apr; 51(4):183-6. PubMed ID: 8927266.
    Abstract:
    The authors report their experience of 18 patients with primary cancer of the gallbladder. On 10 patients at stage IV, 9 had a preoperative diagnosis, while at stage 0-1 and 2 the diagnosis was intraoperative or histologic. Every patient had a cholelithiasis at the same time. The authors discuss prophylactic cholecystectomy, even without specific symptoms, and emphasize the need for a better morphological and radiomorphological classification. In the light of the new microinvasive surgical techniques, they briefly discuss laparoscopic cholecystectomy and histologic diagnosis of carcinoma of the gallbladder.
