Surgical Treatment and Prognosis Analysis of Primary Carcinoma of Gallbladder

Abstract

To discuss the effects of different treatment methods on the prognosis of primary carcinoma of gallbladder (PCG) patients. The clinical statistics of 99 cases of PCG patients were retrospectively analyzed, and the prognosis multivariate analysis was performed. Results: 52% of the patients suffered from PCG and gallstones simultaneously, and 82.8% (82/99) of the patients were diagnosed as PCG before surgeries. 86 cases of patients were subjected to routine exploratory surgeryies, and the radical resection rate was 33.72% (29/86). The overall 5-year survival rate was 6.28%, and the 1-year, 3-year and 5-year survival rates of the radical resection group were 78.43%, 48.49% and 23.77%, respectively. The results were significantly different from those of the palliative surgery group, the exploratory laparotomy group and the non-surgical group. The multivariate analysis of Cox model reveals that surgical method was significantly correlated with the invasion depth of tumor and the prognosis of gallbladder carcinoma. The treatment efficacy of PCG might be improved by increasing the early diagnosis rate and performing radical resection which are accompanied by radiotherapy and chemotherapy.
