Gallbladder Cancer

Gallbladder cancer is a cancer that develops in any part of the gallbladder. The gallbladder is a small organ present below the liver. It stores bile, which is produced by the liver and releases it in the intestine during food digestion. There are various types of gallbladder cancer, such as adenocarcinoma, squamous cell cancer, sarcoma, neuroendocrine tumor, and lymphoma. Females are at an increased risk of developing gallbladder cancer compared to males. Unfortunately, it is difficult to diagnose gallbladder cancer at an early stage; however, if discovered at its early stage, it may mimic other medical conditions. Therefore the patient should consult the cancer specialist at the best hospital for gallbladder cancer in India.
