Gallbladder removal surgery - Open Cholecystectomy
Gallbladder removal surgery
Open cholecystectomy is a surgery where your gallbladder is removed through a single, larger incision in your abdomen. The procedure is typically done when gallstones cause pain or infection. After making the incision, the surgeon carefully removes the gallbladder, ensuring no bile leaks into the body. The incision is then closed with stitches, which will dissolve on their own, so no need to return for removal. The recovery period might take a few weeks, but once you're healed, you can live without your gallbladder just fine! Once your gallbladder has been removed, you will still be able to digest fat because bile will flow directly from your liver into your small intestine.
