Peking Union Medical College Hospital672 enrolled

Overview

We retrospectively review a single-center cohort of gallbladder polyps from January 2015 to May 2020. Univariate and multivariable analyses were performed to extract potential risky factors of neoplastic polyps. Also, a comparison was conducted between laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) and laparoscopic polypectomy (LP) to explore factors affecting surgeons' decision on LC or LP.
