Your gallbladder is a small, pear-shaped organ that is located on the right side of your abdomen, just under your liver. For the digestion gallbladder stores the bile. Gallbladder cancer is rare. If gallbladder cancer is discovered in childhood, the chances of recovery are very good. However, most gallbladder cancers are detected at an advanced stage, while the prognosis is usually very dark. Gallbladder cancer is difficult to diagnose because it often does not cause any specific signs or symptoms. In addition, the relatively hidden nature of the gallbladder allows gallbladder cancer to develop more easily without being detected.
