    Background: Prognostic factors following index-cholecystectomy in patients with incidental gallbladder cancer (IGBC) are poorly understood. The aim of this study was to assess the value of the initial cystic duct margin status as a prognosticator factor and to aid in clinical decision making to move forward with curative intent oncologic extended resection (OER).
