Why does the surgeon remove the entire Gall Bladder for the treatment of Gallstones?
- The Gall bladder functions as a storage for bile (60-80ml) and aids in digestion. While Bile is produced by the liver in large quantities (more than 2 liters/day). So, removal of Gall bladder will not affect your digestion of food or daily routine activities.
- Gallstone formation is aided by the immobility of wall of the gall bladder. So, removal of just the gallstone will result in recurrence in gallstone formation as long as the gall bladder exists.
- The gall bladder gradually ceases to perform its intended function when it forms gallstones.
- Once gallstone developed in gallbladder, there is increase chance of developing inflammation of gallbladder, obstruction of common bile duct, infection and inflammation of liver, Pancreatitis and can even lead to gallbladder cancer.
