INVESTIGATE SEVERAL FACTORS ASSOCIATED WITHNEOPLASTIC OR MALIGNANTGALLBLADDER POLYPS
Main Article Content
Abstract
Purpose: Investigate several factors associated with neoplastic or malignant gallbladder polyps. Methods: A descriptive cross‐sectional study was conducted on 95 patients with gallbladder polyps on cholecystectomy specimens at Hanoi Medical University Hospital from January 2019 to October 2019. Results: The rates of neoplastic polyps and cancerous polyps in cases with more than one polyp and polyps less than 10 mm in size were significantly lower than the figures for cases with only 1 polyp and polyps of 10 mm or more. The rate of cancerous polyps of those aged 50 and younger was lower than that of those over 50 years old. These differences were statistically significant with p <0.05. Conclusions: Over the age of 50, polyps of 10 mm or more in size, only 01 polyp are factors associated with neoplastic or malignant gallbladder polyps.
