Gallbladder Stone Surgery
Safe, Minimally Invasive Treatment for Gallstones
Gallbladder stones (gallstones) are hardened deposits that form inside the gallbladder and can cause severe abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, bloating, and digestive discomfort. If left untreated, they may lead to serious complications such as infection, inflammation, or blockage of the bile ducts.
At Delhi Advance Laparoscopic Centre, Dr. Akash Dua provides advanced laparoscopic gallbladder stone surgery (Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy), a minimally invasive procedure that offers less pain, faster recovery, and minimal scarring.
What Are Gallstones?
Gallstones are solid particles formed from cholesterol, bile salts, or bilirubin. They can vary in size from tiny grains to larger stones and may remain symptom-free for years. However, when they block the flow of bile, they can cause intense pain and require surgical treatment.
Common Symptoms
- Severe pain in the upper right abdomen
- Pain after eating fatty foods
- Nausea and vomiting
- Indigestion and bloating
- Pain radiating to the back or right shoulder
- Fever and chills (in case of infection)
- Yellowing of the skin or eyes (jaundice)
When Is Surgery Needed?
Surgery is usually recommended if you have:
- Symptomatic gallstones
- Repeated gallbladder attacks
- Gallbladder inflammation (Cholecystitis)
- Gallbladder infection
- Stones blocking the bile duct
- Gallstone-related pancreatitis
Laparoscopic Gallbladder Surgery
Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy is the gold-standard treatment for gallstones. The surgeon removes the gallbladder through a few small incisions using a tiny camera and specialized instruments.
Benefits of Laparoscopic Surgery
- Small incisions with minimal scars
- Less postoperative pain
- Faster recovery
- Short hospital stay
- Reduced risk of infection
- Quick return to daily activities
Recovery After Surgery
Most patients are discharged within 24 hours after surgery. Normal daily activities can usually be resumed within a few days, while complete recovery generally takes 1–2 weeks, depending on the patient’s overall health.
