Gallbladder carcinoma in Brazil: Clinicopathological profile and survival outcomes from a high-volume cancer center

Key Points

• Gallbladder carcinoma commonly presents at advanced stages, which limits treatment possibilities for patients.
• Patients with immunoglobulin G positive gallbladder carcinoma experience better survival outcomes and prognosis than those with negative results.
• Radical surgery remains the most effective treatment option but is only applicable to a minority of cases due to late diagnosis.
• The findings emphasize the need for earlier detection strategies to improve patient outcomes and treatment success.
