Abstract
In an analysis of the World Health Organization's Cancer Mortality Database, we found that rates of death from gallbladder and other biliary tract cancers are decreasing in most countries but increasing in some high-income countries following decades of decline. These emerging trends may reflect lifestyle changes, such as increases in excess body weight.
