Article Synopsis
- The study investigates whether laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) negatively impacts the prognosis of patients with unsuspected gallbladder cancer compared to open cholecystectomy (OC).
- A retrospective analysis of 28 patients revealed that recurrence rates were higher in the LC group, but survival rates were primarily correlated with tumor stage rather than the surgical technique used.
- The conclusion suggests that LC does not adversely affect the prognosis for incidental gallbladder cancer, irrespective of when the tumor was diagnosed.
