What is Gallbladder Cancer?
Aggressive biliary tract cancer often discovered late; risk rises with gallstones, chronic inflammation and certain geographic belts (North India).
Gallbladder cancer arises from the mucosa of the gallbladder and may invade liver and bile ducts early. Many cases present during/after cholecystectomy. Early T1 lesions are potentially curable with surgery; advanced disease typically needs systemic therapy ± radiation.
Epidemiology & Key Stats
Global Incidence: Relatively rare worldwide; pockets of high incidence
India Incidence: High in North/East India (Ganga belt)
Prevalence: More common in women; association with gallstones
Avg Diagnosis Age: 50–70 years
Overall Survival: Poor in advanced disease; early resected cases fare better
Survival ranges reflect population data; individual prognosis depends on stage, biology, and access to multidisciplinary care.
Clinical Overview
Decisions hinge on resectability (liver bed involvement, vascular/bile duct invasion), margin/R0 potential, nodal status, and performance status. For incidentally detected cancer, timely re‑operation (radical cholecystectomy) improves outcomes.
Pathogenesis
Chronic irritation from gallstones, porcelain gallbladder, long‑standing Salmonella carriage, anomalous pancreaticobiliary junction, and environmental/genetic factors drive dysplasia‑carcinoma sequence.
Early Detection
Red flags: persistent right‑upper‑quadrant pain, jaundice, unexplained weight loss, pruritus, and a mass in the GB fossa. Ultrasound/CECT/MRI‑MRCP stage disease; CA 19‑9 supportive. Tissue typically from cholecystectomy specimen or image‑guided biopsy.
Management Focus
Early: radical cholecystectomy with liver wedge/segment IVb‑V and regional lymphadenectomy ± bile duct resection. Adjuvant capecitabine or chemo‑RT for high‑risk. Advanced: gemcitabine‑cisplatin based therapy; consider immunotherapy/clinical trials. Biliary drainage and nutrition support are key.
Decision Drivers
Imaging resectability and vascular/ductal involvementIncidental vs de‑novo presentation and margin statusNodal/distant metastasis (CT/PET)Performance status and bilirubin controlMolecular options (MSI‑H/TMB‑high, HER2/FGFR2 rare)
Survivorship
Monitor liver function, biliary patency, nutrition, pruritus control, and psychosocial needs. Recurrence risk highest in first 2 years; schedule imaging accordingly.
Individualized care aligns tumor biology, stage, and patient goals to optimize outcomes.

Gallbladder Cancer Frequently Asked Questions
Clear, patient‑friendly answers to common gallbladder cancer queries. All FAQs are visible (no accordion) for easy scanning and search optimization.
Where is the gallbladder located?
The gallbladder is a small, pear-shaped organ placed just under the liver on the right side of your upper abdomen. It stores bile that helps in digestion.
Why is the gallbladder removed?
Gallbladder removal (cholecystectomy) is usually done when a person has gallstones, severe pain, infection, inflammation, or repeated digestive problems. Removing the gallbladder prevents future attacks and complications.
Is gallbladder cancer treatable?
Gallbladder cancer is treatable, especially when it is found early. Treatment may include surgery, chemotherapy, or radiation depending on the stage. Early diagnosis improves the chances of recovery.
Is bladder cancer treatable?
Yes, bladder cancer is treatable. Many patients do well when treatment begins early. Options include surgery, TURBT, chemotherapy, immunotherapy, and radiation. Success depends on the cancer stage and overall health.
How many bladders are there in the human body?
Humans have one urinary bladder. Its job is to collect and store urine before it is passed out of the body.
Can bladder cancer be detected by ultrasound?
Ultrasound can help detect bladder cancer by showing abnormal growths or thickening inside the bladder. However, doctors often confirm the diagnosis using tests like cystoscopy and biopsy.
