A recent study conducted at the University of Tennessee Health Science Center focuses on gallbladder agenesis (GA), a congenital anomaly of the biliary system characterized by the absence of the gallbladder and cystic duct. The study aims to comprehensively review published cases of GA to evaluate and synthesize research findings on its presentation, management, and clinical outcomes. The researchers will conduct a systematic review of articles on GA in humans, published before October 1, 2022, in English, French, and Spanish. The study will compare short and long-term outcomes between cases that underwent non-operative, open, or laparoscopic surgery. [Extracted from the article] |
