“…All of them with metastatic, inoperable GBC (stage IV) died within 5 months of follow‐up after diagnostic confirmation because of delayed presentation and hepatic failure related to malignant obstructive jaundice. These results were in agreement with a few studies in the literature that reported the mortality rate of GBC was high and accounted for 3830 deaths in the United States 3,44–46 . The main strength of our study is the applicability of the updated patterns of clinical presentation and management modalities of GBC in Sudanese patients to reach excellent practice at Sudanese national surgical centers in spite of significant delay in the diagnosis of advanced GBC.…”

Despite great improvement in clinical GBC treatment, most GBC patients are usually diagnosed at advanced stages with extremely ominous outcomes [3]. To date, our understanding regarding molecular mechanisms of GBC remains unclear.…”
