CW May 2003Issue Number 5 May 2003 ISSN 10593802 Cancer of the Gallbladder: TreatmentSurgery is the only possible curative therapy for gallbladder cancer.

There is no beneficial role for adjuvant chemotherapy or radiotherapy, though there are reports indicating temporary shrinkage of tumors after such treatment.
