Gallbladder stones and polyps are common gallbladder conditions that can cause pain, indigestion, and serious complications if left untreated. Gallstones may block bile flow and lead to infection, while certain gallbladder polyps carry a risk of turning cancerous, making timely surgical treatment essential.
At SurgicalSol, under the expertise of Dr. Asif Iqbal, we offer advanced laparoscopic treatment for gallbladder stones and polyps. As a skilled Gastrointestinal and Laparoscopic Surgeon, Dr. Asif focuses on accurate diagnosis and minimally invasive surgery to ensure safe, effective, and long-lasting results.
Common Symptoms of Gallbladder Stones or Polyps
-
Pain in the upper right abdomen, especially after meals
-
Nausea and vomiting
-
Bloating and indigestion
-
Pain radiating to the back or right shoulder
-
Fever in cases of infection
Some gallbladder polyps may not cause symptoms and are often detected during routine imaging.
Diagnosis and Evaluation
Dr. Asif uses ultrasound as the primary diagnostic tool to detect gallstones and gallbladder polyps. Additional tests may be advised to assess gallbladder function and rule out complications before surgery.
Treatment Options
The most effective treatment is Laparoscopic Gallbladder Surgery (Keyhole Surgery). In this minimally invasive procedure, the gallbladder is safely removed through small incisions. This approach provides relief from symptoms, prevents future complications, and allows faster recovery with minimal scarring.
