Key Words	Incidental gallbladder cancer; Preoperative detection; Imaging
Core Tip	The true incidence of incidental gallbladder cancer (IGBC) in literature appears skewed as the preoperative and intraoperative clues towards malignancy may be missed. We aimed to seek and analyze features suggestive of GBC on preoperative imaging and intraoperative findings in patients diagnosed as having IGBC. On overall analysis, 37 patients had preoperative imaging or intraoperative findings suggestive of malignancy, which was either a missed GBC or an unsuspected/unexpected GBC. A greater awareness of this clinical entity along with a high index of suspicion and a low threshold for conversion to open procedure, may avert avoidable patient morbidity and mortality.
