OBJECTIVE
To investigate the prognostic role of fibrinogen-to-albumin ratio (FAR) on patients with gallbladder cancer (GBC) in this study.
METHODS
One hundred and fifty-four GBC patients were retrospectively analyzed, who received potentially curative cholecystectomy in our institute from March 2005
BACKGROUND
Gallbladder cancer is a rare and aggressive neoplasm.
OBJECTIVE
The purpose of this manuscript was to evaluate the prognostic factors associated with overall survival in gallbladder cancer patients.
METHODS
We performed a retrospective study of the patients with gallbladder cancer who
We have devised an original predictive residual index (PRI) using 99mTc diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid galactosyl human serum albumin (99mTc-GSA) liver dynamic SPET for the pre-operative assessment of hepatectomy, including the prediction of residual liver function before hepatectomy. The aim of
OBJECTIVE
To compare cases of xanthogranulomatous cholecystitis (XGC) and advanced gallbladder cancer and discuss the differential diagnoses and surgical options.
METHODS
From April 2000 to December 2013, 6 XGC patients received extended surgical resections. During the same period, 16 patients were
OBJECTIVE
Perioperative blood transfusion is associated with poor outcomes in several malignancies. Its effect in gallbladder cancer (GBC) is unknown.
METHODS
All patients with GBC who underwent curative-intent resection at 10-institutions from 2000 to 2015 were included. The effect of blood
OBJECTIVE
Gallbladder cancer (GBC) is a highly fatal disease with poor prognosis and 5-year survival <5%. Weight loss and nutritional deterioration are associated with adverse outcomes in terms of cancer prognosis. Protein-calorie malnutrition is the single most common secondary diagnosis in a
BACKGROUND
Cancer-related inflammation promotes gallbladder tumorigenesis and metastasis of gallbladder cancer (mGBC). The levels of circulating inflammatory-related cell and protein as well as the ratios of them may imply the severity of chronic inflammation in GBC patients, and all of them are
BACKGROUND
The clinical impact of combined pancreatoduodenectomy (PD) for advanced gallbladder cancer remains unclear.
METHODS
A total of 96 patients who underwent resection for stage II, III, or IV gallbladder cancer were enrolled. Patients with lower bile duct involvement, pancreatic or duodenal
Neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) has been used as an inflammation based prognostic marker for various malignancies. This study evaluated the association between NLR and overall survival (OS) in patients with metastatic gallbladder cancer (GBC) METHODS: An optimal cut off point for BACKGROUND
Systemic inflammation as evidenced by the Glasgow prognostic score (GPS) predicts cancer-specific survival in various types of cancer. The aim of this study was to evaluate the significance of GPS in therapeutic outcome after surgical resection of gallbladder cancer.
METHODS
The subjects
BACKGROUND
Preoperative predictors of incidental gallbladder cancer (iGBC) have been poorly defined despite the frequency with which cholecystectomy is performed. The objective of this study was to define the incidence of and consider risk factors for iGBC at cholecystectomy.
METHODS
The American
We designed a clinical application of glucose to lymphocyte ratio (GLR) as it might be a sensitive parameter to determine the glucose metabolism and behavior of the cancer (i.e., its aggressiveness), and the immunologic status of a patient with cancer. Thus, we investigated the Thirty-two patients with inoperable hepatic cancer underwent intra-arterial hepatic infusion using mitomycin C (MMC) and 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) or intra-arterial hepatic chemoembolization using heated albumin microspheres containing MMC with an average diameter 45 +/- 8 micron. Nineteen of the 32
BACKGROUND
Survival after surgery for gallbladder cancer is generally poor. A number of inflammation-based prognostic scores have been established to help predict survival after surgery for several types of cancer. The objective of this study was to analyze and compare the utility of two
Established preoperative prognostic factors for risk stratification of patients with biliary tract cancer (BTC) are lacking. A prognostic value of the inflammation-based Glasgow Prognostic Score (GPS) and Modified Glasgow Prognostic Score (mGPS) in BTC has been indicated in several
