The gallbladder is a small organ under the liver that stores bile — a fluid that helps digest fats. Sometimes, bile hardens into gallstones, which can block the flow of bile and cause pain, nausea, or serious infection.
Cholecystectomy is the surgical removal of the gallbladder. It’s the most effective and permanent solution for problems caused by gallstones or gallbladder inflammation.
You may be recommended for gallbladder removal if you have:
Laparoscopic and robotic-assisted cholecystectomy, offering:
Untreated gallbladder issues can lead to recurrent pain, Infection or abscess, gallbladder rupture, pancreatitis (inflammation of the pancreas)
Following laparoscopic cholecystectomy (gallbladder removal), a light, low-fat diet is recommended to support digestion and reduce discomfort. Start with small, frequent meals and avoid fried, greasy, or spicy foods. Gradually reintroduce high-fiber foods as tolerated. Most patients adjust well over time, but individualized guidance may be needed for those with persistent symptoms.
You can live a normal, healthy life without a gallbladder. Bile will still flow from the liver into your digestive tract — just in a different way. Most patients feel better quickly and have fewer digestive symptoms after recovery.
