This study aimed to eveluate our experience in incidental gallbladder carcinomas the effect of resection on life time .We suggest that liver resection may contribute to the disease free survival of the patients with incidental gallbladder carcinomas. Between January 2012 and December 2017, 3691 patients who underwent cholecystectomy in the Department of General Surgery of Abant Izzet Baysal University Medical Faculty and who did not consider biliary stricture in their preoperative evaluation were evaluated retrospectively.Patients were grouped according to age, sex, stone size, bile duct wall thickness and histopathological results.
