Brief summary

Causes such as long-term stones and polyp are thought to play a role in the etiology of gallbladder cancer. The routine histopathological examination provides the detection of incidental gallbladder cancers. It should be remembered that acute or chronic cholecystitis accompanied by the thicked wall and a prolonged history of gallstones may be the cause of malignancy, especially in elderly patients.

Detailed description

The investigators aimed to incidental gallbladder cancer and compare other pathology results with elderly patients.
