- ItemThe role of minimally invasive surgery in gallbladder carcinoma(Obeagu and Obeagu, 2023) Obeagu, Emmanuel Ifeanyi; Obeagu, Getrude UzomaGallbladder carcinoma is a malignant tumor that originates from the cells lining the gallbladder. It is a relatively rare form of cancer but is associated with a poor prognosis due to its aggressive nature and late-stage diagnosis. The incidence of gallbladder carcinoma varies geographically. Minimally invasive surgery, also known as minimally invasive techniques or laparoscopic surgery, is a modern surgical approach that aims to achieve therapeutic goals while minimizing surgical trauma and invasiveness. It involves utilizing specialized instruments and advanced technologies to perform surgical procedures through small incisions or natural body openings.
