  • Title: [Gallbladder carcinoma--an unexpected finding after laparoscopic cholecystectomy].
    Author: Hohaus T, Hellmich G, Freitag M, Ludwig K.
    Journal: Zentralbl Chir; 1998; 123 Suppl 2():80-3. PubMed ID: 9622876.
    Abstract:
    The carcinoma of the gallbladder can be found mostly in a late stage. We have to expect a incidental carcinoma of the gallbladder in 1-2% after conventional cholecystectomy. We report 9 cases of unexpected carcinoma of the gallbladder after 1700 laparoscopic cholecystectomies. The time of survival were--dependent on tumor stage--2 to 36 month. We outline special items of this disease within the context of minimal-invasiv surgery.
