ABSTRACT

Aim: To establish the overall rate of gall bladder carcinoma and unsuspected (incidental) carcinoma based on our experience. Methods: We retrospectively evaluated all consecutive cholecystectomies performed in our institute for a period of five years in order to determine the incidence of gall bladder carcinoma and to identify common clinical and histopathological characteristics of this neoplasm. Results: Totally 591 cholecystectomies were performed in our institute over a period of five years. During this period the gall bladder carcinoma was diagnosed in 0.85% (5/591) of all cholecystectomy specimens. Conclusion: Gall bladder carcinoma is an uncommon malignancy which is commonly diagnosed incidentally in cholecystectomy specimens operated for cholelithiasis and cholecystitis.
