When is Cholecystectomy Recommended for Cancer Patients?
Cholecystectomy is recommended for patients diagnosed with gallbladder cancer or when there is a high risk of the disease. It may also be advised if the patient has chronic gallbladder inflammation that could potentially lead to carcinogenesis. Early-stage gallbladder cancer is often treated with a cholecystectomy to remove the primary tumor and prevent metastasis.
