Cytoreductive surgery combined with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy and intraoperative radiation therapy in the management of gallbladder cancer: a case report.

Gallbladder cancer (GBC) is a rare and highly aggressive malignancy, often characterized by nonspecific clinical presentations and late diagnosis, which contribute to its poor prognosis. It is commonly detected at advanced stages, leading to low survival rates. Surgical resection is the primary treatment, with the extent of surgery depending on the T stage of the cancer. In advanced cases, surgery is only considered if it can potentially be curative. Despite various treatment approaches for advanced GBC, survival outcomes remain poor. In our case series, we introduce a novel treatment approach combining cytoreductive surgery, intraoperative radiation therapy, and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy. Remarkably, we observed a 100% one-year survival rate, with one patient achieving eight years of disease-free survival without recurrence or metastasis. This aggressive treatment strategy did not lead to increased morbidity or mortality, suggesting its safety and feasibility. However, larger-scale studies are required to draw definitive conclusions.

Pathologic significance of peribiliary capillary plexus in gallbladder neoplasm.

AIMS: Significance of peribiliary capillary plexus (PCP) in gallbladder neoplasms remains unclear. Aims are to characterize high-grade biliary intraepithelial neoplasm (BilIN), pyloric gland adenoma (PGA), and intracholecystic papillary neoplasm (ICPN), precursors of gallbladder carcinoma, and to differentiate invasive carcinoma from pseudo-invasive lesions in gallbladder walls, referring to PCP. MATERIALS AND METHODS: High-grade BilIN (38 cases), PGA (5 cases), and ICPN (25 cases) were examined using capillary immunostaining. Non-neoplastic gallbladders were used as controls. RESULTS: In non-neoplastic gallbladders, a single layer of regularly dotted capillaries (PCP) was located beneath lining epithelia and around non-neoplastic glands (NNGs), including Rokitansky-Aschoff sinus (RAS), presenting a two-layer of lining epithelia and PCP. Intra-luminal components of all cases of high-grade BilIN and PGA and one-third of ICPNs presented a two-layer pattern. In the remaining ICPNs, capillaries were irregular and sparse in intraluminal neoplastic components presenting irregular and complicated lesions. Neoplastic glands in gallbladder walls of high-grade BilIN and ICPN were classifiable into 2 types: glands that were underlain by densely dotted capillaries and those that were not, with the latter suggestive of invasive carcinoma, while the former suggestive of non-invasive neoplasms involving NNGs intraepithelially and/or showing an expanding growth into gallbladder wall (pseudo-invasion). CONCLUSION: A two-layer pattern of lining epithelia and underlining capillaries were preserved in all cases of high-grade BilIN and PGA and one-third of ICPN cases. Presence or absence of dotted capillaries around neoplastic glands may be able to be added as a new pathologic feature to differentiate invasive carcinomas from pseudo-invasion in gallbladder wall.

The dysregulation of biliary tract microflora is closely related to primary choledocholithiasis: a multicenter study.

Bile microecology changes play an important role in the occurrence and development of choledocholithiasis. At present, there is no clear report on the difference of bile microecology between asymptomatic patients with gallbladder polyps and choledocholithiasis. This study compared bile microecology between gallbladder polyp patients and patients with choledocholithiasis to identify risk factors for primary choledocholithiasis. This study was conducted in 3 hospitals in different regions of China. Bile samples from 26 patients with gallbladder polyps and 31 patients with choledocholithiasis were collected by laparoscopic cholecystectomy and endoscopic retrograde choledocholithiasis cholangiography (ERCP), respectively. The collected samples were used for 16S ribosomal RNA sequencing and liquid chromatography mass spectrometry analysis. The α-diversity of bile microecological colonies was similar between gallbladder polyp and choledocholithiasis, but the ß-diversity was different. Firmicutes, Proteobacteri, Bacteroidota and Actinobacteriota are the most common phyla in the gallbladder polyp group and choledocholithiasis group. However, compared with the gallbladder polyp patients, the abundance of Actinobacteriota has significantly lower in the choledocholithiasis group. At the genera level, the abundance of a variety of bacteria varies between the two groups, and Enterococcus was significantly elevated in choledocholithiasis group. In addition, bile biofilm formation-Pseudomonas aeruginosa was more metabolically active in the choledocholithiasis group, which was closely related to stone formation. The analysis of metabolites showed that a variety of metabolites decreased in the choledocholithiasis group, and the concentration of beta-muricholic acid decreased most significantly. For the first time, our study compared the bile of gallbladder polyp patients with patients with choledocholithiasis, and suggested that the change in the abundance of Actinobacteriota and Enterococcus were closely related to choledocholithiasis. The role of Pseudomonas aeruginosa biofilm in the formation of choledocholithiasis was discovered for the first time, and some prevention schemes for choledocholithiasis were discussed, which has important biological and medical significance.

Correlation Between Hypothyroidism and Gallstone Disease in Central India.

Introduction The decreased thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) levels affect almost every nucleated cell in our body, which directly affects the basal metabolic rate (BMR). It tends to affect multiple organ systems in the human body. In recent times, there have been changes in lifestyle and the consumption of processed foods has increased. Thus, cholelithiasis and hypothyroidism are being encountered frequently, even in rural populations. In recent times, the overt clinical presentation of hypothyroidism is rare due to early diagnosis and treatment of the subclinical hypothyroidism state itself. Aim The aim is to determine the correlation between cholelithiasis and hypothyroidism. Methods This was a cross-sectional study done on the patients presenting to the surgical department at Acharya Vinoba Bhave Rural Hospital affiliated to Jawaharlal Nehru Medical College, Sawangi (Meghe), Wardha, Maharashtra, India between the duration from December 2020 to December 2022, having gallstone disease or with symptoms suggestive of gall bladder stones. The admitted patients were then evaluated for hypothyroidism by thyroid profile tests, and the results were documented. Using the collected data, factors such as clinical spectrum, correlation between cholelithiasis and hypothyroidism, relation with the demographic data, and body mass index (BMI) were studied. Results A total of 52 gallstone patients were included in the study. A greater number of patients were found to be above the age of 40 years (82.7%), with female preponderance (61.5%). More patients with cholelithiasis were from the group with having BMI more than normal (57.6%). More patients having both cholelithiasis and hypothyroidism were also from the group with having BMI more than normal. Most symptomatic patients complained of pain in the right hypochondriac region (88.5%). Of these 52 patients, nine (17.3%) were found to have hypothyroidism (seven were subclinical, two patients had overt clinical symptoms and signs) and the remaining 43 patients were euthyroid. Conclusions Our study supports that there is a correlation between cholelithiasis and hypothyroidism. Out of all the 52 patients, nine had hypothyroidism, seven were subclinical, and two had overt symptoms. Thus, we conclude that there is a correlation between cholelithiasis and hypothyroidism.

Gallbladder carcinosarcoma with a poor prognosis: A case report.

BACKGROUND: Carcinosarcoma of the gallbladder is a rare malignant tumor with a very poor prognosis. To date, only approximately 100 patients have been reported in the English literature. The prognosis of this tumor type is poor, the preoperative diagnosis is difficult, and there is a possibility of a misdiagnosis. We present an unsuccessful case of carcinosarcoma of the gallbladder with a preoperative misdiagnosis and rapid early postoperative recurrence. Therefore, we have a deeper understanding of the poor prognosis of gallbladder carcinosarcoma (GBC) patients. CASE SUMMARY: The patient is a 65-year-old male. He was admitted to the hospital because of right upper abdomen distending pain and discomfort for half a month. Abdominal magnetic resonance imaging revealed a polycystic mass in the right lobe of the liver and the fossa of the gallbladder. After admission, the patient was diagnosed with a liver abscess, which was treated by abscess puncture drainage. Obviously, this treatment was unsuccessful. Hepatectomy and cholecystectomy were performed one month after the puncture. Postoperative pathologic examination revealed carcinosarcoma of the gallbladder, and the resected specimen contained two tumor components. One month after surgery, the patient's tumor recurred in situ and started to compress the duodenum, resulting in duodenal obstruction and bleeding. The treatment was not effective. The patient died of gastrointestinal hemorrhage and hypovolemic shock. CONCLUSION: Carcinosarcoma of the gallbladder is a rare malignant tumor that is easily misdiagnosed preoperatively and has a poor prognosis.

Gallbladder cancer: surgical treatment, immunotherapy, and targeted therapy.

Gallbladder cancer is a common type of biliary tract tumor. Optimal management for early stage cases typically involves radical excision as the primary treatment modality. Various surgical techniques, including laparoscopic, robotic, and navigational surgery, have demonstrated favorable clinical outcomes in radical gallbladder excision. Unfortunately, most patients are ineligible for surgical intervention because of the advanced stage of the disease upon diagnosis. Consequently, non-surgical interventions, such as chemotherapy, radiotherapy, immunotherapy, and targeted therapy, have become the mainstay of treatment for patients in advanced stages. This review focuses on elucidating various surgical techniques as well as advancements in immunotherapy and targeted therapy in the context of recent advancements in gallbladder cancer research.

Incidentally Detected Gallbladder Carcinoma: Can F-18 FDG PET/CT Aid in Staging and Prognostication?

Purpose: Incidental gallbladder carcinoma (IGBC) is diagnosed in post-cholecystectomy specimens for benign indications, where the role of 2-fluro-2-deoxyglucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography(FDG-PET/CT) is not clearly defined. The present study aimed to assess the benefits of staging and prognosticating with FDG-PET/CT in IGBC. Materials and Methods: A retrospective observational study from a tertiary-care center from January 2010 to July 2020 was performed. The demographic, clinical, histopathological, and treatment-related histories were collected. FDG-PET/CT-image findings were compared with survival outcomes through telephonic follow-up. The chi-square test was used for comparing frequencies. The univariate and multivariate survival estimates were analyzed using the Kaplan-Meier analysis and the Cox-proportional hazard model, respectively. Log-rank test was used to compare the Kaplan-Meier curves. Results: The study included 280 postcholecystectomy participants (mean age: 52 ± 11 years; women: 227) of whom 52.1% had open surgery(146/280). Residual disease in the gallbladder fossa (54.8% vs. 36.6%, p = 0.002) and liver infiltration (32.9% vs. 22.4%, p = 0.05) were seen more frequently in open surgery compared to laparoscopic surgery, while anterior abdominal wall deposits were more common in laparoscopy(35.1% vs. 24%,p = 0.041). FDG-PET/CT changed the management in 10% (n = 28) of patients compared to contrast-enhanced CT. The median survival was 14 months (95%CI-10.3-17.7). A higher stage of the disease on the FDG-PET/CT (loco-regional disease-HR 4.86, p = 0.006; metastatic disease-HR 7.53, p < 0.001) and the presence of liver infiltration (HR-1.92, p = 0.003) were independent predictors of poor survival outcomes. Conclusion: FDG-PET/CT detects residual and metastatic disease in patients with IGBC, enabling the institution of appropriate management and acting as a tool for prognostication of survival.

What Happens After Discharge? A 2+ Year Follow-Up After Laparoscopic Subtotal Fenestrating and Reconstituting Cholecystectomy.

Laparoscopic subtotal cholecystectomy (LSC) is utilized to prevent complications in the difficult cholecystectomy. Medium-term outcomes are poorly studied for fenestrating and reconstituting operative techniques. A single-institution retrospective review was undertaken of all LSCs. A telephone survey was used to identify complications addressed at other institutions. We performed subgroup analyses by operative approach and of patients requiring postoperative endoscopic intervention (ERC). 28 patients met inclusion criteria. The median follow-up was 32.7 months. There were no bile duct injuries or reoperations. 21% of patients required a postoperative ERC and 50% were discharged home with a drain. Bile leaks were found to be more prevalent in the fenestrating LSC group (38% vs 0%, P = .003). The case series suggested more severe recurrent biliary disease in patients undergoing reconstituting LSC. Laparoscopic subtotal cholecystectomy appears to have satisfactory medium-term outcomes. The reconstituting LSC group trends toward more severe recurrent disease which warrants further investigation.

Plain computed tomography for differentiating neoplastic and non-neoplastic pedunculated gallbladder polyps.

AIMS: Surgery is recommended for large pedunculated gallbladder polyps (PGPs), which measure 10 mm or more in size, because they tend to be neoplastic polyps (NPs), such as adenomas and adenocarcinomas. However, after resection, they are often found to be non-neoplastic polyps (non-NPs). This study aimed to evaluate the usefulness of plain CT in distinguishing NPs from non-NPs. METHODS: Of the 80 patients who underwent cholecystectomy for PGPs ( 10 mm between January 2008 and February 2021, 46 who underwent plain and contrast-enhanced CT (CE-CT) before resection were included in this study. We retrospectively assessed the polyp detection rate (PDR) using CT and calculated the difference in the CT values between PGPs and the surrounding bile. RESULTS: Twenty-one patients had NPs (12 adenomas, 5 carcinomas in adenoma, and 4 adenocarcinomas). The others were non-NPs (24 cholesterol polyps and one hyperplastic polyp). The PDR using plain CT was significantly higher in the NP group than in the non-NP group (38% (8/21) vs. 0% (0/25), p <0.01). The sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, negative predictive value, and diagnostic accuracy of NPs were 38%, 100%, 100%, 66%, and 72%, respectively. The difference in the CT values between PGPs and the surrounding bile was significantly larger in the NP group than in the non-NP group (14.12 ± 11.38 HU, 5.04 ± 6.15 HU, p <0.01). CONCLUSIONS: PGPs detected using plain CT had a high probability of being NPs. Plain CT is therefore considered to be useful for differentiating NPs from non-NPs.

The impact of cholecystectomy on the symptom relief and quality of life of patients with gallbladder dysmotility.

BACKGROUND: The aim of this study was to demonstrate the impact of laparoscopic cholecystectomy on the physical and mental health of patients with gallbladder dysmotility. METHODS: Retrospective data was collected from 314 patients who had undergone a hepatobiliary iminodiacetic acid (HIDA) scan between June 2012 and June 2022 in a District General Hospital in South East England. Sixty-three patients who were diagnosed with gallbladder dysmotility were then contacted and asked to participate in a telephone interview regarding their symptoms. We measured their health-related quality of life using the HRQoL SF-12 v2 (Health Related Quality of Life Short Form-12 version 2) questionnaire. Differences in the resolution of symptoms between those that had undergone a cholecystectomy and those who did not, were assessed using a chi square test. The two groups were then compared using the student t-test to assess statistically significant differences. RESULTS: 94% (n = 31/33) of the participants in the non-cholecystectomy group demonstrated persistent biliary pain symptoms as opposed to the 6% (n = 2/30) in the cholecystectomy group. A statistically significant improvement in five out of the eight domains of the HRQoL SF-12 questionnaire was demonstrated. These domains include PCS (physical component summary), MCS (mental component summary), mental health, general health and bodily pain. CONCLUSION: The results of our retrospective analysis demonstrate an improvement in both the physical and mental health-related quality of life symptoms in patients who underwent laparoscopic cholecystectomy. These findings support the use of laparoscopic cholecystectomy as an effective method for managing gallbladder dysmotility.

Kaempferol attenuates inflammation in lipopolysaccharide-induced gallbladder epithelial cells by inhibiting the MAPK/NF-κB signaling pathway.

Kaempferol (KPR), a flavonoid compound found in various plants and foods, has garnered attention for its anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and anticancer properties. In preliminary studies, KPR can modulate several signaling pathways involved in inflammation, making it a candidate for treating cholecystitis. This study aimed to explore the effects and mechanisms of KPR on lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced human gallbladder epithelial cells (HGBECs). To assess the impact of KPR on HGBECs, the HGBECs were divided into control, KPR, LPS, LPS + KPR, and LPS + UDCA groups. Cell viability and cytotoxicity were evaluated by MTT assay and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) assay, respectively, and concentrations of KPR (10-200 µM) were tested. LPS-induced inflammatory responses in HGBECs were to create an in vitro model of cholecystitis. The key inflammatory markers (IL-1ß, IL-6, and TNF-α) levels were quantified using ELISA, The modulation of the MAPK/NF-κB signaling pathway was measured by western blot using specific antibodies against pathway components (p-IκBα, IκBα, p-p65, p65, p-JNK, JNK, p-ERK, ERK, p-p38, and p38). The cell viability and LDH levels in HGBECs were not significantly affected by 50 µM KPR, thus it was selected as the optimal KPR intervention concentration. KPR increased the viability of LPS-induced HGBECs. Additionally, KPR inhibited the inflammatory factors level (IL-1ß, IL-6, and TNF-α) and protein expression (iNOS and COX-2) in LPS-induced HGBECs. Furthermore, KPR reversed LPS-induced elevation of p-IκBα/IκBα, p-p65/p65, p-JNK/JNK, p-ERK/ERK, and p-p38/p38 ratios. KPR attenuates the LPS-induced inflammatory response in HGBECs, possibly by inhibiting MAPK/NF-κB signaling.

Micro-RNAs With Prognostic Significance in Gallbladder Cancer: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.

Gallbladder cancer (GBC) stands out as one of the most widespread malignancies impacting the biliary tract globally. Despite increasing interest, to the best of our knowledge, no meta-analysis has been undertaken to amalgamate the existing data concerning the prognostic significance of micro-RNAs (miRNAs) in GBC in comparison to studies on miRNAs in other cancers. Hence, this systematic review and meta-analysis aimed at determining the prognostic significance of miRNAs in GBC patients. Comprehensive literature searches were conducted across PubMed, Cochrane Library, Ovid, Scopus, and Science Direct databases. Studies that evaluated the association between miRNAs and overall survival in GBC patients were included. Random-effect meta-analysis was employed to pool hazard ratios (HRs) and their 95% confidence intervals (CIs) across studies. A total of 15 studies, encompassing 16 miRs, were included for our analysis. The pooled analysis revealed that a high expression of miR-204, miR-7-2-3p, miR-29c-3p, miR-125b, miR-20a, miR-139-5p, miR-141, miR-92b-3p, miR-335, and miR-372 was significantly associated with poor prognosis and increased risk (HR>1 and the upper bound of the 95% CI>1). Additionally, these miRNAs were associated with the overall survival (HR = 1.56, 95% CI = 0.91-2.20, I2 = 91.82%). Significant heterogeneity was observed and could be attributed to the limited number of studies available on the GBC and significant reliance on quantitative real-time PCR for the detection of miRNAs. In conclusion, specific miRNAs exhibit prognostic significance in GBC, with potential implications for patient stratification and targeted therapeutic interventions. However, due to the heterogeneity among studies, these findings should be interpreted cautiously and validated in larger cohorts.

Parthenolide induces gallbladder cancer cell apoptosis via MAPK signalling.

Objective: Parthenolide (PTL) has a wide range of clinical applications owing to its anti-inflammatory and antitumor effects. To date, the antitumor effect of PTL on gallbladder cancer (GBC) remains largely unknown. Therefore, we aimed to investigate the biological effects of PTL on GBC. Methods: The cellular viability and proliferation of GBC-SD and NOZ cell lines after treatment with different concentrations of PTL were analyzed using the Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK8)assay and colony formation assay. Apoptosis analysis was performed using flow cytometry. Hoechst staining was performed. RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) was performed to identify PTL-related genes and signalling pathways. Furthermore, we confirmed the involvement of these signalling pathways by qRT-PCR and western blotting. For the in-vivo experiments, a xenograft model was used to evaluate the effects of PTL on the proliferation of NOZ cells. Results: PTL significantly inhibited GBC cell growth in vitro and induced apoptosis in the GBC-SD and NOZ cell lines in a dose-dependent manner. RNA sequencing data showed that the immune response and mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signalling pathways are closely associated with PTL-induced gallbladder cancer cell apoptosis. PTL upregulated BAX, cleaved PARP-1, cleaved caspase-3, cleaved caspase-9, P53 and decreased the expression of BCL-2, phosphorylated ERK, and phosphorylated MEK in vitro. Tumour volume and weight were also suppressed by PTL in vivo. Moreover, the effects of PTL on GBC cells might be mediated by the MAPK pathway. Conclusion: PTL significantly inhibits gallbladder cancer cell proliferation and induces apoptosis through the MAPK pathway, which is a potential molecular reagent for treating GBC. However, further exploration is needed to verify the antitumor effects of PTL and its intracellular signalling mechanism.

Arsenic's shadowy influence: A systematic review of its carcinogenic role in gallbladder cancer.

INTRODUCTION: Gallbladder carcinoma (GBC) and cholangiocarcinoma are aggressive forms of cancer developed in the gallbladder and biliary tracts which are related to the liver. This systematic review aimed to highlight the significant association between gallbladder, biliary cancers, and arsenic exposure. METHODS: An extensive search was conducted in Embase, Cochrane, Scopus, PubMed, and Web of Science. We included studies that assessed arsenic levels in gallbladder cancer patients, without restrictions on age, sex, or language. Biological samples, such blood, bile, gallbladder tissue, gallstones, and hair were obtained, and arsenic levels were measured. Also, arsenic water and soil concentrations were collected. RESULTS: A total of 13 studies were included in our review. These studies included 2234 non-gallbladder carcinoma patients and 22 585 gallbladder carcinoma cases. The participant demographics showed a gender distribution of 862 males and 1845 females, with an age range of 20-75 years. The average body mass index (BMI) was 19.8 kg/m2 for nongallbladder carcinoma patients and 20.1 kg/m2 for gallbladder carcinoma cases. The selected studies examined arsenic concentrations across various biological samples, including blood, hair, gallstones, and bile. Blood arsenic levels ranged from 0.0002 to 0.3893 µg/g and were significantly associated with increased gallbladder carcinoma risk in several studies. Hair also demonstrated a significant correlation, with arsenic concentrations ranging from 0.0002 to 6.9801 µg/g. CONCLUSION: There is a strong link between arsenic exposure and gallbladder cancer or cholangiocarcinoma. Even chronic exposure to low-moderate amounts could lead to gallbladder carcinoma. These findings stress the need for more comprehensive and dedicated studies, to control arsenic water/soil levels and seek other preventive measures for this high mortality disease.

Agenesis of the gallbladder: A multicenter case series and review of the bibliography. / Agenesia de la vesícula biliar: una serie de casos multicéntrica y revisión de la literatura.

Gallbladder agenesis is a rare condition in pediatrics that is usually asymptomatic and represents a diagnostic challenge for physicians seeing these cases for the first time. Some patients may, however, present with symptoms that mimic other diseases of the bile ducts, and many of them undergo surgery due to such suspicion. Still, a timely diagnosis of gallbladder agenesis allows for medical treatment that is often sufficient to resolve the patient's problem. Although it is a benign condition, patients often present with other associated, more serious malformations and should be actively studied for a timely referral to other specialists. Here we describe our experience with the diagnosis and treatment of these patients and a brief review of the bibliography. We hope it will be helpful for physicians facing similar cases.

La agenesia de la vesícula biliar es una entidad rara en pediatría con una evolución normalmente silente, y representa un desafío diagnóstico para el médico que enfrenta estos casos por primera vez. Algunos pacientes pueden, sin embargo, presentar síntomas que simulan otras patologías del árbol biliar, y muchos de ellos son operados ante esta sospecha. Sin embargo, el diagnóstico oportuno de esta entidad permite llevar a cabo un tratamiento médico que muchas veces es suficiente para resolver el problema del paciente. Si bien es una condición benigna, los pacientes suelen presentar otras malformaciones asociadas que son más graves en naturaleza y que deben investigarse activamente para poder derivarlos a los especialistas de manera oportuna. Presentamos nuestra experiencia en el diagnóstico y tratamiento de estos pacientes, así como una breve revisión de la literatura. Esperamos que sea de utilidad para el médico que encuentre un caso similar.
