[carcinoma of the gallbladder]

We report the frequency and age of metaplasia, dysplasia and carcinoma of the gallbladder, and seek to establish a sequence of progression of these, since several studies suggest that this is the carcinogenesis pathway.Descriptive retrospective cross-sectional study over a period of 4 years, with an analytical component of 1,514 patients with cholelithiasis, in whom cholecystectomy were performed.The mean age of the sample was 46 years and 72% of patients were female. The prevalence (and mean age) of pyloric metaplasia, intestinal metaplasia, dysplasia and carcinoma was 22.6 (47), 2.1 (46), 0.2 (54) and 0.6% (63 years), respectively. There was a significant association between intestinal and pyloric metaplasia (P<.001, chi(2)) and between dysplasia and carcinoma (P<.005, Yates), but not between metaplasia and dysplasia.Improved studies should be conducted for the correct interpretation of the pathogenesis of gallbladder cancer.
