dc.description.abstractAim: Accidental gallbladder cancers have started to increase all over the world with the spread of laparoscopic cholecystectomy. The aim of this study is to evaluate gallbladder malignancies in patients who were not diagnosed with preoperative malignancies undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy for benign reasons in our clinic, accompanied by literature. Material and Methods: Cases of laparoscopic cholecystectomy performed in our clinic between 2010 and 2019 with the preliminary diagnosis of gallstones, chronic cholecystitis, delayed acute cholecystitis or benign gallbladder polyps were retrospectively reviewed. Demographic data such as age, gender and comorbidities of the patients were recorded. Patients with preoperative gallbladder or liver malignancy were excluded from the study. Results: Incidental gallbladder malignancy was detected in 11 of 5100 cases in the histopathological examination of cholecystectomy material. Nine cases were recalled and reoperated, and then transferred to oncology for chemotherapy. Two cases were followed nonoperatively. Discussion: Cholecystectomy operation is one of the most performed surgeries in a number of general surgery clinics and is mostly performed for benign reasons. For this reason, the process of following up and evaluating the histopathology results after the operation can be neglected. Today, with the widespread use of laparoscopic cholecystectomy, incidental gallbladder malignancies have increased. For this reason, pathology outcome follow-up after cholecystectomy or laparoscopic cholecystectomy operation is important.en_US
