A 10 year retrospective study of 134 patients in whom gallbladder cancer developed in El Paso County was undertaken. Improved survival was noted in younger, female, and Hispanic patients, which appears to be a unique demographic characteristic of gallbladder cancer in an area endemic for biliary calculi. These prolonged survival data may all be explained by early diagnosis. In addition, there is suggestive evidence that a multidisciplinary approach of operation plus adjuvant chemotherapy and radiotherapy results in greater length of survival.
对埃尔帕索县134例发生胆囊癌的患者进行了一项为期10年的回顾性研究。研究发现，年轻、女性和西班牙裔患者的生存率有所提高，这似乎是胆结石流行地区胆囊癌独特的人口统计学特征。这些延长的生存数据可能都可以通过早期诊断来解释。此外，有暗示性证据表明，手术加辅助化疗和放疗的多学科方法可延长生存期。
