METHODS:Original studies on simple and extended cholecystectomy for T1a or T1b GB cancer were searched from MEDLINE(PubMed) ,Cochrane Library,EMBase,and CancerLit using the search terms of GB,cancer/carcinoma/tumor/neoplasm. RESULTS:Twenty-nine out of the 2312 potentially relevant publications met the eligibility criteria.Of the 1266 patients with GB cancer included in the publications,706(55.8%) and 560(44.2%) had T1a and T1b GB cancer,respectively.Simple cholecystectomy for T1a and T1b GB cancer was performed in 590(83.6%) and 375(67.0%) patients,respectively(P<0.01) .In most series,the treatment of choice was simple cholecystectomy for T1a GB cancer patients with a 5-year survival rate of 100%.Lymph node metastasis was detected in 10.9% of the T1b GB cancer patients and in 1.8%of the T1a GB cancer patients,respectively(P<0.01) .Eight patients(1.1%) with T1a GB cancer and 52 patients(9.3%) with T1b GB cancer died of recurrent GB cancer(P<0.01) . CONCLUSION:Simple cholecystectomy represents the adequate treatment of T1a GB cancer.There is no definite evidence that extended cholecystectomy is advantageous over simple cholecystectomy for T1b GB cancer.展开更多
