Should all gallbladders be examined routinely or selectively by microscopy after cholecystectomy? Population-based Dutch study over a decade

Abstract

The need for routine histopathological examination of gallbladders after cholecystectomy is debated. This study suggests that selective histopathological examination of the gallbladder may be considered oncologically safe. While the necessity of a routine histopathologic examination of gallbladders after cholecystectomy is debated. This study suggests that a selective histopathologic examination of the gallbladder may be considered as oncologically safe.
