Background: This study sought to evaluate the prognostic heterogeneity of Stage III (Union for International Cancer Control, seventh edition) gallbladder carcinoma.Methods: Of 175 patients enrolled with gallbladder carcinoma who underwent radical resection, 22 were classified with Stage IIIA disease (T3N0M0) and 46 with Stage IIIB disease (T2N1M0 [n = 23] and T3N1M0 [n = 23]). The median number of retrieved lymph nodes per patient was 18.Results: This staging system failed to stratify outcomes between Stages IIIA and IIIM; survival after resection was better for patients with Stage In disease than for patients with Stage IIIA disease, with 5-year survival of 54.9% and 41.0%, respectively (p = 0.366). Multivariate analysis for patients with Stage III disease revealed independently better survival for patients with T2N1M0 than for patients with T3N0M0 (p = 0.016) or T3N1M0 (p = 0.001), with 5-year survival of 77.0%, 41.0%, and 31.0%, respectively. When N1 status was subdivided according to the number of positive nodes, 5-year survival in patients with T2M0 with 1-2 positive nodes, T2M0 with >= 3 positive nodes, T3M0 with 1-2 positive nodes, and T3M0 with >= 3 positive nodes was 83.3%, 50.0%, 45.8%, and 0%, respectively (p < 0.001).Conclusions: The prognosis of T2N1M0 disease was better than that of T3N0/1M0 disease, suggesting that not all node-positive patients will have uniformly poor outcomes after resection of gallbladder carcinoma. T2M0 with 1-2 positive nodes leads to a favorable outcome after resection, whereas T3M0 with >= 3 positive nodes indicates a dismal prognosis.
