M. Li
Background/Hypothesis
Carcinoma of the gallbladder is diagnosed during or after cholecystectomy for presumed benign disease in 0.3% to 2% of cases. The current evidence supports the need for re-exploration and radical resection for incidental gallbladder tumors that are stage T2 or greater stage. The objective of re-exploration and resection is to remove the possible residual disease left behind by simple cholecystectomy and resection of associated lymph nodes. Traditionally
