Abstract:
To discuss the status quo of gallbladder cancer in China,88 articles published in China were collected and the clinical data of 7882 patients who were suffering from gallbladder cancer was analyzed.The requirements for the literature were:domestic articles published from 1980.1 to 2008.6,the gallbladder cancer cases must exceed 50,the cases must come from the same domestic hospital,and if the cases were reduplicative,the maximum were selected.Analysis of the data showed that primary carcinoma of the gallbladder was the most common malignant tumor in the biliary tract,with a higher incidence in females than males.The cancer's pathologic characteristics of undiscoverable growth and poor differentiation led to its clinical significance of difficult early stage diagnosis,high degree of malignancy,poor prognosis,and adenocarcinoma formation.Although the technique of surgical operation has constantly progressed over time,gallbladder cancer surgery possesses a lower rate of radical resection.Every biliary surgeon should brainstorm and deliberate about how to face the status quo of gallbladder cancer in China.This article participates in that discussion by identifying several noticeable problems in the diagnosis and treatment of gallbladder cancer.
