Abstract: Objective To study parameters influencing the prognosis of patients with gallbladder carcinoma.Methods A retrospective clinical analysis was conducted in 96 cases of gallbladder carcinoma treated in this hospital between 1993 and 2003.Results The overall 5-year survival rate of the patients was 6.32%.The 1-, 3-, and 5-year survival rates following radical resection for gallbladder carcinoma were 78.36%, 48.54%, and 23.87%, respectively.The survival rate was remarkably higher in the radical resection group than in others.Multivariate analysis revealed that depth of infiltration of the tumor and surgical procedure were markedly associated with prognosis.Conclusion Early diagnosis and radical resection are still the mainstay for long-term survival of the patients with gallbladder carcinoma.Appropriate perioperative care can improve survival rate.
