Gall Bladder is a small pear shaped organ situated just below the liver in the abdomen. The main function of Gall Bladder is to store and concentrate bile which is produced in the Liver. Only a part of the bile which is produced in the Liver goes to Gall Bladder where it concentrates. Rest all of the bile pass directly into small intestines. Sometimes this Gall Bladder becomes mal-functional leading to stone formation.  While some people have only single stone, others can have multiple stones. Many times these stones don’t cause problems. In few patients these stones can cause infection and inflammation in the Gall Bladder. This leads to pain with fever and jaundice if these stones slip into the bile ducts and block the flow of bile. Abdominal ultrasound is the best investigation to confirm this.

Once the diagnosis is confirmed upon ultrasound, the only and best treatment option is to remove this Gall Bladder by surgery.

The Gall Bladder surgery is done by Laparoscopy that is the key-hole technique. Open surgical procedure is almost abandoned.

This surgery is performed through three to four small holes. In uncomplicated cases there are no stitches or bandages.  Mostly, the patient can walk around and drink liquids in 3 hours and go home within 24 hours the surgery. He or she might resume office in 3 to 4 days.
