Context:

Gallbladder carcinoma presents diagnostic challenges.
Low pre-operative diagnosis rates (6%) observed in a 1984-1990 cohort.
Persistent difficulties in early detection of gallbladder cancer.

Purpose:

To highlight clinical and paraclinical symptoms aiding gallbladder carcinoma diagnosis.
To emphasize the urgent need for early detection and treatment of biliary diseases.

Summary:

Analysis of 34 operated gallbladder carcinoma patients (1984-1990).
Pre-operative diagnosis was established in only 6% of cases.
5-year survival rate is low (1-5%), often due to incidental findings during surgery for gallstones.

Impact:
