Abstract
Objectives

To assess the management of gallbladder cancer (GBC) in our region.

Material and methods

Data on 372 patients who underwent cholecystectomy were identified from our database (January 2003 to February 2008) and 6 patients were found to have GBC.

Results

Four patients had incidental carcinoma, one case was preoperatively suspected, and one patient presented with jaundice and locally advanced neoplasia. The incidence was 2 per 100 000 inhabitants per year; incidental carcinoma in 1.1% of cholecystecomies. The ultrasonography showed multilithiasis in 2 patients, sludge and neoplasia in 1, gallstones more than 3cm in 2, and tumor mass only in 1 case. T stage: one case of T0 (in situ), 1 of T1, 2 of T2, and one T4. Incidental carcinomas were reoperated on when a T2 was established: two underwent lymphadenectomy and cystic stump resection, 1 segmentectomy IVb-V and lymphadenectomy. In the preoperative suspected neoplasia a cholecystectomy, lymphadenectomy, and partial hepatic gallbladder bed resection was initially performed.

Conclusions

GBC has a low incidence but it will be found in 1% of cholecystectomies. There is no adjuvant treatment and T-based surgical treatment is the only opportunity to reach cure in those patients. A national GBC database would be helpful in the publication of national guidelines for this disease.

Resumen
Objetivo

Evaluar el tratamiento del cáncer de vesícula biliar (CVB) en nuestro medio.

Material y métodos

De 372 pacientes a los que se les realizó colecistectomía (enero de 2003 a febrero de 2007), 6 presentaron un CVB.

Resultados

En 4 casos el carcinoma fue incidental, en un paciente se tuvo sospecha diagnóstica antes de la colecistectomía, y un paciente comenzó con ictericia obstructiva secundaria a neoplasia avanzada. Incidencia: 2 casos por 100.000 habitantes por año; cáncer incidental en el 1,1% de las colecistectomías. La ecografía mostró multilitiasis en 2 pacientes, barro biliar y neoplasia en un paciente, litiasis mayor de 3cm en 2 pacientes y sólo masa tumoral en un paciente. Grados T: un caso T0 (in situ), un caso T1, 3 casos T2 y un caso T4. En los T2 incidentales se practicó ampliación quirúrgica: en 2, linfadenectomía, y en uno, segmentectomía IVb-V con linfadenectomía. En la sospecha preoperatoria se practicó colecistectomía, linfadenectomía y resección del lecho vesicular.

Conclusiones

El CVB presenta baja incidencia pero es un hallazgo incidental en el 1% de las colecistectomías. No existe tratamiento adyuvante, por lo que la cirugía basada en el grado T es la única oportunidad de curación. No es infrecuente que tumores supuestamente T2 sean luego T3 al existir células malignas en el lecho vesicular hepático. Su extirpación mantiene la oportunidad de curación. La creación de una base de datos nacional de cáncer de vesícula ayudaría a establecer recomendaciones terapéuticas propias para esta enfermedad.
