Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy (Gallbladder Removal) in Andheri West

What is Cholecystectomy?

A cholecystectomy is the surgical removal of the gallbladder, a small organ located beneath the liver. This procedure is often performed to treat gallstones or other gallbladder conditions that cause pain or complications.

Why is the Gallbladder Removed?

The gallbladder stores bile, which helps digest fats. However, gallstones or other issues can obstruct bile flow, leading to pain, infection, or inflammation. Common reasons for gallbladder removal include:
  • Gallstones: Hard deposits in the gallbladder causing discomfort.
  • Cholecystitis: Inflammation of the gallbladder.
  • Porcelain Gallbladder: A calcified gallbladder at risk of cancer.
  • GB Sludge: Bile thickening that may cause blockages.

Symptoms Indicating Gallbladder Issues

Gallbladder problems often manifest through:
  • Severe Abdominal Pain: Especially in the upper right side.
  • Nausea and Vomiting: Accompanying the pain.
  • Bloating: Feeling of fullness after meals.
  • Fever and Jaundice: Signs of infection or bile duct blockage.
If you experience these symptoms, consulting a specialist is essential to avoid complications.

Treatment Options for Gallbladder Issues

At Curis Life, we offer both surgical and non-surgical approaches based on the severity of the condition.

1. Non-Surgical Treatments

For minor issues, non-surgical approaches can provide relief:
  • Dietary Changes: A low-fat diet to reduce gallbladder stress.
  • Medications: Drugs to dissolve gallstones, though results take time and may not be effective for all patients.
  • Observation: In asymptomatic cases, regular monitoring is advised.

2. Surgical Treatments

Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy
This is the most common and effective procedure for gallbladder removal. It involves:
  • Small incisions.
  • Faster recovery.
  • Minimal scarring.
  • Short hospital stay.
Our expert laparoscopic general surgeons perform the procedure with precision, ensuring a quick and safe recovery.

Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy: Steps of the Procedure

Here’s what you can expect during a lap cholecystectomy:
  1. Anesthesia: General anesthesia ensures a pain-free experience.
  2. Small Incisions: Four tiny cuts are made in the abdomen.
  3. Inserting the Laparoscope: A camera provides a clear view for precise surgery.
  4. Gallbladder Removal: The gallbladder is carefully detached and removed.
  5. Closure: Incisions are closed with sutures or surgical glue.
Recovery is usually quick, with patients resuming daily activities within a week.

What Happens After Gallbladder Removal?

Patients often worry, “If the gallbladder is removed, what happens?” Fortunately, the liver continues to produce bile, and most people adjust to life without a gallbladder with no significant issues. Minor dietary adjustments may be needed to aid digestion.
