Brief Summary
|
Study Title:- Factors predicting intraoperative inoperability
in radiologically resectable gallbladder malignancies
Type of Study:- Retrospective Observational Study
Gallbladder cancer (GBC) is an aggressive malignancy in which surgical resection offers the best chance of long-term survival. Although preoperative evaluation using tumor markers, CT/PET-CECT and staging laparoscopy suggests resectability, a subset of patients (approximately 15–20%) are found to be inoperable during surgery. Inoperability may result from peritoneal disease, liver metastases, positive peritoneal cytology, inter-aortocaval lymph node involvement or extensive local tumor spread. Identifying preoperative and intraoperative predictive factors allows better patient selection, improves surgical decision-making and may reduce non-therapeutic laparotomies. |
