Gallstones are hardened deposits that form inside the gallbladder, a small organ located beneath the liver. The gallbladder stores bile, which helps digest fats. When bile components become imbalanced, stones may develop.
Gallstones can vary in size and may remain asymptomatic for years. However, once symptoms occur, medical evaluation is essential.
Common symptoms include:
Sudden pain in the upper right abdomenPain after eating fatty mealsNausea and vomitingBloating and indigestionPain radiating to the back or shoulderRecurrent abdominal discomfort
In severe cases, gallstones can lead to infection, inflammation, or blockage of the bile ducts.
When gallstones cause recurring symptoms or complications, surgical removal of the gallbladder (cholecystectomy) is considered the gold-standard treatment.
Removing the gallbladder prevents future stone formation and eliminates recurring attacks. Most patients can live normal, healthy lives without a gallbladder.
Modern laparoscopic surgery has made the procedure safer and more comfortable than ever before, with minimal scarring and faster recovery times.
