ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND/

AIM:

Neoplastic spindle cells (NSCs) are believed to play a role in cancer invasion and metastasis, as well as in poor prognosis. The clinicopathological characteristics and prognostic relevance of NSCs was investigated in gallbladder cancer. MATERIALS AND

METHODS:

Specimens were obtained from 62 patients with gallbladder cancer who underwent surgery. The emergence of NSCs and their correlation with clinicopathological factors, prognosis, and EMT markers was evaluated.

RESULTS:

The NSC grade correlated with tumor size, preoperative CA19-9, surgical margin, the degree of differentiation, the depth of invasion, lymph node metastasis, lymphatic invasion, vascular invasion, and perineural invasion. Multivariate analysis of overall survival showed that NSCs were an independent prognostic factor. A correlation between NSCs and EMT was also suggested.

CONCLUSION:

NSCs are an independent prognostic factor for patients with postoperative gallbladder cancer, which also suggests a correlation between NSCs and EMT.
