  3. What is Gall Bladder Cancer? Gallbladder cancer is a rare type of cancer that begins in the cells of the gallbladder, a small, pear-shaped organ located beneath the liver. The gallbladder stores and releases bile, a digestive fluid that helps break down fats in the small intestine. www.oncologistdrseemasingh.com

  4. How Gallbladder Cancer Develops? Gallbladder cancer typically starts in the inner layer (mucosa) of the gallbladder and can spread outward to other layers of the organ and beyond. The most common type of gallbladder cancer is adenocarcinoma, which originates in the glandular cells that produce mucus in the lining of the gallbladder. www.oncologistdrseemasingh.com

  5. What are the Symptoms of Gallbladder Cancer? Nausea and vomiting. Unexplained weight loss. Bloating or a feeling of fullness Jaundice (yellowing of the skin and eyes) Abdominal pain, especially in the upper right side www.oncologistdrseemasingh.com

  6. What are the Risk Factors? Gallstones Age and Gender Lifestyle Factors Genetic Mutations Chronic Inflammation www.oncologistdrseemasingh.com

  7. How Diagnosis works? Imaging tests: Ultrasound, CT scans, or MRI. Biopsy: If abnormal growths are found. Blood tests: To check liver function and tumor markers www.oncologistdrseemasingh.com

  8. What are the Treatment for Gall bladder Cancer? Surgery: Removal of the gallbladder (cholecystectomy) is the primary treatment for early-stage cancer. Chemotherapy and Radiation: For advanced stages, these can help control the spread and alleviate symptoms. Targeted Therapy: Medications targeting specific cancer mutations. www.oncologistdrseemasingh.com

  9. What are the Prognosis of it? The outcome depends on the stage at diagnosis. Early detection improves the chances of successful treatment, but late-stage gallbladder cancer is often challenging to treat due to its aggressive nature. If you experience persistent symptoms or have risk factors, consult a healthcare provider for timely evaluation. www.oncologistdrseemasingh.com

  10. Conclusion Gallbladder cancer is a challenging disease due to its asymptomatic nature in early stages and its aggressive progression. Awareness of risk factors and early symptoms is crucial for timely diagnosis and treatment. Advances in medical technology and targeted therapies offer hope for better outcomes, particularly when the disease is detected early. Maintaining a healthy lifestyle and seeking medical attention for persistent symptoms can contribute to prevention and early detection. www.oncologistdrseemasingh.com
