Gallbladder surgery, or cholecystectomy, is performed for gallstones, inflammation (cholecystitis), or polyps. It is commonly done using laparoscopy, which involves small incisions and a quick recovery. The procedure is done under general anesthesia, and most patients are discharged within a day. Recovery takes about 1-2 weeks, with dietary modifications advised initially. Potential risks include infection, bile duct injury, or digestive changes. Post-operative care involves avoiding fatty foods, staying hydrated, and gradually resuming activities. Laparoscopic cholecystectomy is a safe and effective procedure for gallbladder-related conditions.
