Background: Gallbladder cancer is a malignancy with a highly dismal prognosis, requiring optimal surgical strategies to achieve effective outcomes. We aimed to evaluate the outcomes of our algorithm-based decision-making approach based on image T-factors and intraoperative pathology of regional lymph node metastases and the bile duct stumps in patients undergoing gallbladder cancer resection.
Methods: A prospectively maintained database of patients who underwent gallbladder cancer resection between April 2001 and June 2022 was reviewed.
