| Core Tip |
The prognosis of advanced gallbladder cancer is extremely poor. Many clinicians and even experienced surgeons are confused and pessimistic about the treatment of advanced gallbladder cancer. Here, we report a patient with stage IVB gallbladder cancer with multiple liver metastases, peritoneum metastasis, diaphragm metastasis, and lymph node metastases who was cured by multidisciplinary treatment. Although the prognosis of metastatic gallbladder cancer remains extremely poor in the current medical field, the presented case highlights the importance of providing aggressive multidisciplinary treatment to appropriately selected patients with metastatic gallbladder cancer to achieve long-term survival. |
