How are gallstones treated?
People with gallstones generally have 2 treatment options.
They can have:
1. No treatment – This option is best for most people who have no symptoms
2. Surgery to remove the gallbladder and the stones – Gallbladder surgery via #Laparoscopic #cholecystectomy (Key hole) is routinely performed all over the world. Gallbladder is dissected from the liver, clipped and removed via the umbilicus.
It’s a day-care surgery, virtually painless and patients usually get discharged the very next day.
P.S – Gallbladder along with stones is removed from the body as it is dysfunctional.
Post operative recovery and post surgical lifestyle will be as normal as before surgery.
