The prevalence of gallbladder cancer in 10,468 cholecystectomy patients was studied: 3.4% of the female and only 1.32% of the male population had gallbladder cancer (p < 0.001). The female population had 2.7 times more cholelithiasis, and 7.9 times more cancer than the male population. Cancer incidence increases progressively with age, specially after the 5th decade.
