Laparoscopic Gallbladder Removal
( Chole Cholecystectomy )
Laparoscopic cholecystectomy is minimally invasive surgery to remove the gallbladder. It helps people when gallstones cause inflammation, pain or infection. The surgery involves a few small incisions, and most people go home the same day and soon return to normal activities. Call your healthcare provider if you have any problems after surgery. Gall stones can also move to other parts of the body and cause serious occasionally life threating complications like pancreatitis and infection of bile duct
What is a laparoscopic cholecystectomy?
Laparoscopic cholecystectomy is surgery to remove your gallbladder.

The surgeon makes a few small incisions on the right side of your abdomen (belly). The surgeon uses one incision to insert a laparoscope, a thin tube with a camera on the end. This shows your gallbladder on a screen. The gallbladder then gets removed through another small incision.

Laparoscopic cholecystectomy is less invasive than open cholecystectomy. This other form of gallbladder removal involves a larger incision. 07396449351
