An observational single-centre study to find out does regular monitoring of a specialised blood test ( serum Ca 19.9 measurement) helps in the early detection of recurrence of gallbladder cancer after surgery.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
The sensitivity, and specificity for the first raised postoperative CA 19-9 level, the serial rise in serum CA 19-9, and the relative rise and absolute cut-off value of serum CA 19-9 for the diagnosis of recurrenceTimepoint: 6 months

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
The positive predictive value, and negative predictive value for the first raised postoperative CA 19-9 level, the serial rise in serum CA 19-9, and the relative rise and absolute cut-off value of serum CA 19-9 for the diagnosis of recurrence.Timepoint: 6 months
