When is Gallbladder Removal Necessary?
Cholecystectomy removal is typically recommended when:
- There are frequent gallstone attacks causing severe pain.
- The Gallbladder becomes inflamed (cholecystitis).
- Gallbladder polyps are detected and pose a risk of complications.
- There is a blockage in the bile ducts leading to digestive issues.
While gallbladder removal is generally safe, some patients may experience cholecystectomy removal side effects such as temporary digestive changes. However, most people adapt well, and their digestive system functions normally without the Gallbladder.
