Key Statistics for Gallbladder Cancer
The P站视频’s estimates for cancer of the gallbladder and nearby large bile ducts in the United States for 2025 are:
- About 12,610 new cases diagnosed: 6,040 in men and 6,570 in women
- About 4,400 deaths from these cancers: 1,950 in men and 2,450 in women
Of these new cases, about 4 in 10 will be gallbladder cancers.
Gallbladder cancer usually is not found until it is advanced and is causing symptoms. Only about 1 of 5 gallbladder cancers is found in the early stages, when the cancer has not yet spread outside the gallbladder. This is mainly because there is no effective screening method for this disease, and it often grows without causing symptoms.
The chances of survival for patients with gallbladder cancer depend to a large extent on how advanced it is when it's found. For more on this, see Survival statistics for gallbladder cancer by stage.
