Extended right hepatectomy is effective for gallbladder cancer, achieving negative resection margins. This procedure offers acceptable morbidity and long-term survival rates for patients with gallbladder cancer.

Area of Science:

  • Hepatobiliary surgery
  • Surgical oncology

Background:

  • Radical cholecystectomy is standard for advanced gallbladder cancer.
  • The efficacy of extended right hepatectomy for achieving negative margins is uncertain.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the role and outcomes of extended right hepatectomy in gallbladder cancer surgery.

Main Methods:

  • Retrospective review of clinicopathologic, perioperative, and long-term outcome data.
  • Analysis of patients who underwent hepatic resection for gallbladder cancer between 1995 and 2005.

Main Results:

  • 11 of 22 patients underwent extended hepatectomy; all achieved negative resection margins.
  • No significant differences in morbidity, mortality, or survival between extended and minor hepatectomy.
