Abstract

Gall bladder carcinoma is the most common carcinoma of the biliary tract and the fifth most common malignant tumor of the gastrointestinal tract. The patients usually have no symptoms at all or non-specific symptoms are present. The therapy for gall bladder carcinoma is complete removal. Unfortunately, in 80% of the cases the survival period is less than one year.
