Yashoda Hospitals offers advanced gallbladder operations for patients with personalized care and cutting-edge techniques.
A cholecystectomy, commonly called gallbladder removal surgery, is a surgical procedure where the removal of gallbladder takes place. The gallbladder is a pear-shaped organ located below the liver. It collects and stores bile, a digestive fluid. This common, safe procedure, with minimal complications, typically involves small incisions and typically allows patients to return home the same day. It is typically performed using small incisions. A cholecystectomy is often performed by introducing a tiny video camera and special instruments via many small incisions in the abdomen to view into and remove the gallbladder. This is known as a laparoscopic cholecystectomy surgery. In some cases, the gallbladder may be removed by a single big incision. This is known as an open cholecystectomy and needs a lengthier hospital stay and recovery. In some cases, gallbladder stone laser surgery is also suggested due to its non-invasive nature and advanced technology.
A cholecystectomy is usually recommended for gallbladder problems causing stones, inflammation, infection, or cancer.
In this category, the patient is administered general anaesthesia, followed by the insertion of the devices through 3 to 4 incisions made to better access the gallbladder, and the gallbladder is removed using a tiny camera for precision. Laparoscopic cholecystectomy surgery time is typically between 1-2 hours.
In this category, the surgeon accesses the liver and gallbladder by making a 6-inch incision right below the right rib cage. The gallbladder is excised, and the incision is closed with staples. This procedure is performed when laparoscopic cholecystectomy fails or when the gallbladder is severely infected or scarred, gallstones are not visible, the patient is overweight or obese, or there are bleeding issues during surgery.
Patients who are experiencing conditions such as
| Procedure Name | Gallbladder Stone |
|---|---|
| Type of Surgery | Open or laparoscopic |
| Type of Anesthesia | General |
| Procedure Duration | Procedure Duration |
| Recovery from Surgery | Few days to few weeks |
Cholecystectomy is an elective procedure where healthcare providers explain the condition and recommend it, often involving blood tests and health screenings. They ask for informed consent and inform about open or laparoscopic cholecystectomy procedures plans. Before surgery, an IV line is installed in the arm to deliver medicines and administer anesthesia.
Lap cholecystectomy involves making small incisions near the belly button, inflating abdomen with carbon dioxide gas, using a laparoscope, removing gallbladder, and closing incisions with stitches. An open cholecystectomy involves making a 4-6 inch incision under the right rib, removing the gallbladder, inserting a Jackson Pratt drain, and closing the incision with stitches.
After surgery, one is shifted to the recovery room for monitoring. If patients underwent a laparoscopic gallbladder surgery, they might be discharged home the same day. If one had an open cholecystectomy, they would need to spend a few days in the hospital. The drain may remain in place for a few days, and the patient might return home.
Recovering from gallbladder stone treatment usually takes about two weeks, whereas recovery from open cholecystectomy may take six to eight weeks. If a drain is present, it will be removed during the follow-up appointment. Many individuals can resume work within one to two weeks, but it’s important not to engage in physical activities until approved by the surgeon.
• Diet modification as per the surgeon guidelines.
• Pain medications for discomfort.
• Avoid heavy lifting or strenuous activities as per the doctor’s advice.
• Maintaining incision hygiene.
• Follow-up appointments for recovery monitoring.
• In some cases, thin tubes may be inserted in order to drain the fluid for a few days.
