Abstract
Gallbladder cancer (GBC) is an uncommon disease with one of the highest incidences in India, south Pakistan and Chile. The incidence in Nepal is also high given the proximity to India. This study aims to highlight the burden of gall bladder cancer and shed some light on its risk factors. The incidence in females is high. Lower socioeconomic status, illiteracy, high prevalence of obesity, smoking, high prevalence of H. pylori could be the driving factors in gall bladder cancer in Nepal.
