Abstract:
Objective To analyze the CT staging and evaluate its role in assessing the resectability of the gallbladder carcinoma.Methods The CT scans of 47 patients who had pathologically confirmed gallbladder carcinoma were retrospectively reviewed and the CT stages of gallbladder carcinoma were used to evaluate the resectability.Results Before operation,three patients were in stage Ⅰ(6.4%,3/47),14stageⅡ(29.8%,14/47),10 stageⅢ(21.7%,3/47),20 stage Ⅳ(42.6%,20/47),however,after operation,three patients were in stage Ⅰ(6.4%,3/47),14 stageⅡ(29.8%,14/47),8 stage Ⅲ(17.0%%,8/47),22 stage Ⅳ(42.6%,20/47).The accurate rate of CT staging confirmed by operation was 91.5%(43/47).The treatment procedures of gallbladder carcinomas included radical operation,palliative excision and exploratory laparotomy.For 47 patients with gallbladder carcinomas,radical operation was performed in 30 cases(3 stage Ⅰ,14 stageⅡ,7 stage Ⅲ,6 stage Ⅳ),palliative excision 15 cases(1 stage Ⅲ,14 stage Ⅳ),exploratory laporatory 2 eases(2 stage Ⅳ).Conclusion The staging of gallbladder carcinoma with CT may provide definite value in evaluating respectability of gallbladder carcinoma.
