Department of Radiology, St. Vincent's Hospital, College of Medicine, The Catholic University of Korea, Seoul, Korea.
Background/aims: Cholecystectomy for gallbladder (GB) polyps is performed primarily based on preoperative images.

Department of General Surgery, The First Affiliated Hospital of Anhui Medical University, Hefei, Anhui, 230022, China.
Background: CA19-9 is a classical tumor marker and plays an important role in the diagnosis of biliary and pancreatic cancer. However, a few cases reported that the tumor maker CA19-9 is abnormally elevated in patients with calculous cholecystitis, but the relation between severity of calculous cholecystitis and serum CA19-9 level are still unknown.
Methods: Total 105 calculous cholecystitis patients from first hospital were collected and divided into high serum CA19-9 group(high group, n = 35) and normal serum CA19-9 group(normal group, n = 70).

Background: Identifying past, present, and future temporal trends in gallbladder and biliary tract cancer (GBTC) can increase public awareness and promote changes in prevention and treatment strategies.
Methods: The incidence and death rates of GBTC between 1990 and 2021 were extracted from the Global Burden of Disease 2021 study and assessed according to country, region, year, age, and sex. Time trends were measured using the average annual percentage change (AAPC) and projections of the burden of disease for 2022-2045 were made using the Bayesian age-period-cohort model.
