Core Tip
Core tip: Squamous cell carcinoma of gallbladder (GBSCC) is a rare subtype, and it has a poor prognosis. The squamous components that may explain the complex biological behavior and its poor prognosis show greater capacities of proliferation and local invasive in gallbladder carcinoma. Surgical resection has been considered as the basis of treatment for years, and complete resection is associated with increased survival. CD109 may be involved in the pathogenesis of GBSCC and serves as a novel target for intervention.
