When a stone formed as a result of bile sedimentation in the gallbladder blocks the bile duct, it requires serious and urgent surgery. Therefore, it is extremely important to plan immediate surgery when gallstones are detected on ultrasound.
Gallbladder surgeries are now performed laparoscopically (closed). The operation takes approximately 1 hour. It is sufficient to stay in the hospital for 1 day after the operation. Patients working office jobs can return to work during the first week after surgery.
