Gall Bladder Diseases

Comprehensive Surgical Care for Gall Bladder Conditions

The gallbladder is a small, pear-shaped organ located beneath the liver that plays a key role in fat digestion by storing and concentrating bile. Gall bladder diseases are among the most common gastrointestinal conditions, ranging from symptomatic gallstones to acute inflammation and even malignancy. Early diagnosis and expert surgical management are essential to prevent complications and preserve digestive health.

Dr. Surendra Pal Jakhar offers advanced surgical solutions for all types of gallbladder disorders, utilizing minimally invasive laparoscopic techniques that ensure faster recovery, minimal scarring, and better patient outcomes. From routine cholecystectomy to complex extended resections, our goal is to provide safe, effective, and personalized care.

Common Gall Bladder Conditions We Treat

  • Gallstones (Cholelithiasis): Hardened deposits of bile that can cause pain, nausea, and block the bile ducts.
  • Acute Cholecystitis: Sudden inflammation of the gallbladder, often due to a stone blocking the cystic duct.
  • Chronic Cholecystitis: Long-standing inflammation leading to thickening and reduced function of the gallbladder.
  • Gall Bladder Polyps: Abnormal growths on the gallbladder wall; some may carry a risk of malignancy.
  • Gall Bladder Cancer: A rare but serious malignancy requiring prompt surgical intervention.
  • Biliary Dyskinesia: Impaired gallbladder emptying without the presence of stones, causing biliary-type pain.
  • Choledocholithiasis: Stones that migrate into the common bile duct, potentially causing jaundice or pancreatitis.

Surgical Procedures Offered

  • Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy: The gold standard for symptomatic gallstones and cholecystitis – performed through small incisions with a camera.
  • Extended Cholecystectomy: For gallbladder cancer, including resection of adjacent liver segments and lymph node dissection.
  • Open Cholecystectomy: When laparoscopic surgery is not feasible due to severe inflammation or scarring.
  • Intraoperative Cholangiography: To identify bile duct stones during surgery.
  • Laparoscopic Common Bile Duct Exploration: For retrieval of stones in the bile duct.

Symptoms of Gall Bladder Diseases

  • Sudden, sharp pain in the right upper abdomen (biliary colic)
  • Pain that radiates to the right shoulder or back
  • Nausea, vomiting, or indigestion after fatty meals
  • Fever and chills (indicating infection)
  • Jaundice (yellowing of skin and eyes) – suggests bile duct obstruction
  • Dark urine and clay-colored stools
  • Bloating and belching
