Purpose: To investigate the effectiveness of neoadjuvant therapy and lymph node dissection(LND) on overall survival (OS) in patients with stage III/IV gallbladder cancer without distant metastases.
Methods: Data from 101 patients who received neoadjuvant therapy followed by surgery combined with adjuvant chemotherapy, and 1412 patients who received direct surgical treatment followed by adjuvant chemotherapy, were collected from the SEER database from 2004 to 2020. Patients were divided into group A (neoadjuvant therapy) and group B (direct surgery) based on the treatment modality.

Background: Data on optimal extent of resection for various stages of gallbladder cancer are lacking. This study aims to evaluate disease-free (DFS) and overall survival (OS) after simple (SC) versus radical cholecystectomy (RC) for gallbladder cancer in the Australian context, and assesses factors associated with post-operative morbidity.
Methods: Multi-centre, retrospective cohort analysis including all gallbladder cancer patients who underwent resection across six Australian institutions between January 2010 and January 2020.
