What is laparoscopic gallbladder removal?
Laparoscopic gallbladder removal is a minimally invasive surgery in which a damaged or inflamed gallbladder is removed using tiny incisions and specialised instruments. The gallbladder is a tiny organ in your right upper belly, immediately behind your liver. Bile, a liquid generated by the liver, is stored here. The gallbladder secretes bile into the small intestine, which aids in the breakdown and absorption of dietary lipids. Without a gallbladder, normal digestion is possible. If it gets substantially infected or inflamed, it may be removed as a therapeutic option. The most frequent kind of gallbladder removal procedure is laparoscopic removal. it's formally known as laparoscopic cholecystectomy.
Gallstones and the problems they produce are most often treated with cholecystectomy. If you experience the physical conditions, your doctor may consider a cholecystectomy:
- Gallstones in the gallbladder (cholelithiasis)
- The bile duct is clogged by gallstones (choledocholithiasis)
- Inflammation of the gallbladder (cholecystitis)
- Gallbladder polyps of a large size
- Gallstones cause pancreatitis (inflammation of the pancreas).
During the procedure
A tiny device called a port is inserted through an incision near your belly button by the surgeon. The port provides a hole through which your surgeon can inject gas into the abdomen. This frees up room for the surgery to take place. They then push a tiny camera into the port. On a screen in the operating room, the camera shows the procedure. Once the surgeon can see well, additional ports are inserted to allow long, narrow tools to be inserted. Finally, your gallbladder is gently disconnected and removed through one of the incisions. The majority of procedures require three or four incisions, but some require more.
Recovery
Although eating-related symptoms are mild and uncommon following gallbladder removal surgery, you may have diarrhoea. As soon as you're up and feeling better, you'll be urged to go for a walk. Your doctor will tell you when you'll be able to resume most routine activities. It usually takes about a week to go back to normal activity. While you're recovering, you'll need to take care of your incision wounds. This includes properly cleaning them. The majority of folks can shower the day following surgery.
