Abstract excerpt
Anomalous junction of the pancreaticobiliary duct (AJPBD) is thought to be an important risk factor for gallbladder carcinoma in Japan. We have reported the characteristic pathology, cellular kinetics, and gene mutations to clarify the mechanism of carcinogenesis in gallbladder mucosa with AJPBD. A comprehensive review of the literature was undertaken, with referencing of major articles on the subject. A sequence...
