Frequently Asked Questions
Gallstone removal surgery is considered a routine procedure at any gallstone center or gallbladder stone clinic. Laparoscopic cholecystectomy is minimally invasive, while open cholecystectomy is a slightly more invasive procedure.
The duration of gallstone removal surgery can vary depending on the complexity of the case and the chosen surgical technique. On average, laparoscopic cholecystectomy takes about 1-2 hours, while open cholecystectomy may take longer.
Recovery time varies from person to person, but most individuals can expect to return to their normal activities within a week or two after laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Open cholecystectomy may require a longer recovery period of a few weeks.
Most people can resume their regular diet after gallstone removal surgery. However, some individuals may experience temporary digestive changes, such as diarrhea or difficulty digesting fatty foods. Your doctor may recommend gradual dietary adjustments based on your specific needs.
No, once the gallbladder is removed, gallstones cannot reform. However, it's possible for gallstones to develop in the bile ducts if there are pre-existing conditions or abnormalities.
