Gallstones are hardened deposits of bile that form in the gallbladder. When they cause pain or complications, the gallbladder is removed via laparoscopic cholecystectomy โ a routine, safe procedure performed daily across our hospitals.
If you experience any of the following symptoms, consult a specialist promptly:
Understanding the underlying causes helps in prevention and treatment:
4 small incisions in the abdomen allow insertion of a laparoscope and instruments. The gallbladder is detached from the liver and removed through one of the incisions. Surgery takes 45โ60 minutes.
Tiny incisions, minimal scarring
Same-day or next-day discharge
Reduced pain compared to open surgery
Quick return to normal diet
Back to work in 5โ7 days
No long-term lifestyle changes needed
Most patients go home within 24 hours. Light activity is encouraged immediately. Stitches dissolve naturally. A normal diet can be resumed within a few days.
