Area of Science:

  • Surgical Oncology
  • Gastrointestinal Surgery
  • Oncologic Imaging

Background:

  • Optimal prognostication of gallbladder cancer relies on accurate lymph node staging.
  • Systematic laparoscopic lymph node sampling is crucial for accurate staging.
  • High-risk lymph node stations include 12a, b, p, c, 13, 16, 8, and 9.

Observation:

  • A 59-year-old male with acute myeloid leukemia developed cholecystitis post-stem cell transplant.
  • Laparoscopic cholecystectomy revealed T2 gallbladder cancer with negative cystic duct stump.
  • Lymph node in station 12c was uninvolved.

Findings:

  • A systematic laparoscopic approach was used for lymph node sampling.
  • Key lymph node stations (13, 16, 12a, b, c, p) were dissected.
  • This technique allows for comprehensive staging of gallbladder cancer.

Implications:

  • Complete dissection of lymph node stations improves prognostication for incidental gallbladder cancers.
  • Minimally invasive techniques enhance safety and efficacy in oncologic re-resection.
  • Systematic lymphadenectomy is vital for accurate staging and treatment planning.
