Surgical Oncologist Dr V Balasubramaniam discusses gallbladder cancer and the best treatment options available for gallbladder cancer.

For any cancer, the treatment is based on the stage. Investigations are done to check and confirm if cancer has only affected a particular organ or has spread to other organs (staging).

For early gall blander cancer the best treatment modality is surgery, called radical cholecystectomy wherein the gallbladder is completely removed along with the adjacent part of the liver.
In locally-advanced stages, chemotherapy or chemoradiation may be given. In the case of metastatic disease, where the disease has spread to other organs, surgery is generally not used. In such cases, palliative chemotherapy is usually given to control the symptoms.
