Radical surgical resection is the most important method for the treatment of gallbladder carcinoma, and TNM cancer staging is an important basis for making surgical decisions. However, there is no standard for the selection of surgical methods and validity extent of surgical resection. Based on the AJCC 8th Edition Cancer Staging System, the paper makes a systematic review of the situation and disputes regarding the extent of surgical resection for gallbladder carcinoma.
