Gallbladder cancer; Bile spillage; Prognosis; Survival; Cholecystectomy |

Bile spillage remains clinically relevant in incidental gallbladder cancer despite loss of statistical independence in multivariate overall survival analysis. This letter contextualizes gallbladder cancer incidence globally, identifies methodological flaws and a key limitation in van Dooren et al, and proposes a bile spillage classification framework. |
