Gallbladder removal is one of the most widely performed surgeries across this world. If you are looking for laparoscopic gallbladder removal in Bangalore, this guide will clarify the procedure, advantages, and why AV hospital is the top choice for such an operation.

What is Laparoscopic Gallbladder Removal?

Laparoscopic gallbladder removal, or laparoscopic cholecystectomy, is minimally invasive surgery performed to remove the gallbladder. The gallbladder is a small organ located under the liver that stores bile, which is fluid for digestion. The gallbladder could be surgically removed when gallstones cause pain, infection, or other complications. 

Unlike in traditional open surgery, laparoscopic surgery involves some small cuts to insert a camera (laparoscope) to guide the surgeon. This technique has earned preference to aid in quicker recovery, less scarring, and better safety.

Why Laparoscopic Gallbladder Removal?

Patients presenting with symptomatic gallstones, aids[lap?] gallbladder disease, or other associated conditions are indicated for laparoscopic cholecystectomy. The benefits of laparoscopic gallbladder removal include:

Minimally Invasive: The procedure involves small cuts, generally up to ne[a1-2" B].A], that inflict the least trauma to the surrounding tissues.

Faster Recovery: Patients tend to recover quickly with minimal postoperative pain and are usually discharged the same day or the next day.

Minimal Scarring: Small cuts lead to less scarring, making the procedure more cosmetically acceptable.

Low Risk of Complications: There could be minimal risk of infection and bleeding in laparoscopic procedures compared to open ones.

Quick Return to Daily Activities: In most cases, patients can return to their normal routines within 1-2 weeks, as opposed to 4-6 weeks after open surgery.

Indications for Laparoscopic Gallbladder Removal

Laparoscopic gallbladder removal is most often performed when there are the following indications:

Gallstones: The gallbladder has to be removed when gallstones Block the Bile Duct or cause inflammation.

Cholecystitis: Infection may arise due to inflammation of the gallbladder from gallstones and could require surgery.

Pancreatitis: A gallstone can cause inflammation of the pancreas (pancreatitis), and undergoing gallbladder removal could prevent other related problems. 

Gallbladder polyps or cancer: Irregular gallbladder polyps or cancers could require surgical excision. 

The Laparoscopic Gallbladder Removal Procedure

Here’s how the laparoscopic gallbladder removal procedure typically runs:

Preparation: You’ll receive general anesthesia, which will make you sleep throughout the procedure. The surgeon will make 3 to 4 small incisions in your abdomen, typically near your belly button.

Inserting the Laparoscope: One incision allows the insertion of a small tube with a camera (laparoscope) to provide a clear view of the gallbladder.

Removing the Gallbladder: Specialized instruments are used by the surgeon through the other incisions to detach and extract the gallbladder from the body.

Closure: After the gallbladder is removed, the incisions are closed with sutures or staples. The small incisions heal quickly and leave minimal scarring.

Post-Procedure Recovery and Aftercare

After a laparoscopic gallbladder removal:

Hospital Stay: Most patients return home on the same day, or stay for 1 night.

Pain Management: Mild discomfort or bloating may occur for a few days but can be relieved with prescribed pain medications.

Dietary Changes: You may want to avoid high-fat foods for the time being, while your body gets used to being without a gallbladder to aid in digesting food.

Returning to Work: Most individuals return to work within 1 to 2 weeks, depending on their occupation. 

Living normally: You can lead a normal life after surgery as the gallbladder was not contributing to digestion. Your liver still does well in producing bile needed for fat digestion.
