Objective To review the latest advances in diagnosis and treatment of gallbladder carcinoma.Methods The recent literatures on diagnosis and treatment of gallbladder carcinoma at home and abroad were reviewed, and the diagnosis, staging and treatment progress of gallbladder carcinoma were systematically reviewed.Results There are many methods to diagnose gallbladder carcinoma, among which imaging methods are commonly used, as well as various tumor markers and gallbladder carcinoma-related genes. Surgical resection is still the only possible cure for gallbladder carcinoma, but the scope and timing of surgical resection are still controversial. Radiotherapy, chemotherapy and gene therapy also play an important role in the treatment of gallbladder carcinoma.Conclusions Imaging examination is still the first choice for the diagnosis of gallbladder carcinoma. The tumor markers and gene diagnosis has broad prospects. Gallbladder carcinoma is mainly treated by surgery. Gene intervention and precise targeted therapy are the future development direction.
