Surgery for Gallbladder Cancer
Surgical removal of a tumor remains one of the most effective methods of gallbladder cancer treatment. Not only is it the oldest form of treating cancer, but surgery can also play a key role in helping to diagnose and determine the gallbladder cancer stage.
At Cancer Treatment Centers of America (CTCA), our cancer doctors specialize in using innovative surgical techniques for gallbladder cancer treatment.
At CTCA, you may decide to integrate surgery into your gallbladder cancer treatment for a variety of reasons. Surgery is most often used to accomplish one or more of these goals: preventative (or prophylactic) surgery, diagnostic surgery, staging surgery, curative surgery, debulking (or cytoreductive) surgery, palliative surgery, supportive surgery and restorative (or reconstructive) surgery.
No matter what your specific needs are, our compassionate and integrative cancer care team will work with you to come up with a gallbladder cancer treatment plan that is completely customized to you.
