Understand this condition

Gallbladder cancer arises in the bile-storing organ under the liver. Some cases are discovered on pathology after gallbladder surgery.

How it is assessed

Pathology, depth of involvement, imaging, and liver or nodal findings inform whether further assessment or surgery is needed.

Care pathways

Surgical extent and other treatment depend on stage and resectability. Advanced disease may involve systemic treatment and symptom care.

Important distinctions & limits

Gallstones are not gallbladder cancer. The complete postoperative pathology report is important before deciding next steps.

One diagnosis, several care specialties

Read the video transcript
  1. Understand the disease type first. An organ name is not enough. Pathology, stage, and general condition give context.
  2. Each specialty has a role. Medical, radiation, and surgical oncology may work together according to the case.
  3. An MDT brings perspectives together. A multidisciplinary team discusses findings and options. Team composition depends on the case.
  4. Bring clear questions. BKC supports coordination. Diagnosis and medical decisions remain with licensed clinicians.
