Small incisions and specialized tools are used during laparoscopic gallbladder removal, a minimally invasive procedure, to remove a diseased or inflamed gallbladder. The gallbladder is a tiny organ in the right upper abdomen, below the liver. Bile, a fluid produced by the liver, is kept there. Bile is released by the gallbladder into the small intestine to aid in the breakdown and absorption of dietary fats. It is possible to have normal digestion without a gallbladder. If it develops a significant infection or inflammation, removal is a treatment option. The most popular procedure for removing the gallbladder is laparoscopic removal. The medical term for it is laparoscopic cholecystectomy. The presence of gallstones and the problems they cause are the main causes of gallbladder removal. Cholelithiasis is the medical term for the presence of gallstones. Bile components that solidify cause gallstones to form inside the gallbladder. They come in sizes ranging from a golf ball to a grain of sand. Additionally, if any of the following apply to you: Gallstones can move to the common bile duct and potentially cause a blockage that prevents the gallbladder and the rest of the biliary tree from draining. Choledocholithiasis can also occur when gallstones move to the common bile duct. Cholecystitis is an inflammation of the gallbladder. Pancreatitis is an inflammation of the pancreas that is linked to gallstones. Because your surgeon makes smaller incisions during laparoscopic surgery than during open surgery, it is preferred. Your risk of infection, bleeding, and recovery time are all decreased with smaller incisions.
