Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • The comparison of macroscopic and histopathologic examination of the cholecystectomy specimen with 1000 cases

    The 1000 cholecystectomy specimens will be evaluated macroscopically by two experienced surgeons with a longitudinal incision to the gallbladder. The specimens will be grouped as benign, suspicious, malign according to the surgeon's decision. To confirm the surgeon's macroscopic evaluation, all of the specimens will be evaluated histopathologically. The results of macroscopic and histopathological examinations will be compared.

    15 days

Study Arms (3)

Benign

Benign pathology specimens with macroscopically

Suspicious

Suspicious group includes the conditions such as increasing of the gallbladder wall thickness, having calcifications or polyps in the gallbladder.

Malign

Malign group includes the conditions such as detecting mass or irregularities in the gallbladder wall.
