Gallbladder stones or gallstones are one of the most common digestive disorders in India with a prevalence of 3-5%. While the condition usually arises in adults over the age of 40 years, it can affect people of all age groups, including children.

Gallstones are some stone-like hard depositions in the gallbladder made up of Cholesterol, salt, and Bilirubin (made out of destructed blood cells). Being a very typical condition, gallstones vary a lot in size some can be as small as a particle of sand whereas others can be as large as apples. Some individuals develop just one gallstone, while others may develop several gallstones all at the same point in time.
Gallstones may cause no symptoms. If a gallstone is found in a duct and leads to blockage, symptoms may include:
- Sudden and swiftly growing pain in the upper right section of the abdomen
- Sudden and rapidly increasing pain in the center of the abdomen
- Back pain between the shoulder blades
- Right shoulder ache
You might not notice anything, or even know that you have gallstones, unless Dr. N. S. Babu tells you.
When you come to the Apollo hospital or Russh Hospital for Gallstone Treatment in Hyderabad problem than Dr. N. S Babu first gives some tests which include
- Ultrasound, CT, and MRI are done to generate images of the gallbladder
- A test that uses a unique dye to highlight bile ducts on images may help the doctor verify if a gallstone is leading to a blockage.
- Tests may include a HIDA scan, MRI, or ERCP. Gallstones discovered using ERCP can be eliminated during the procedure.
- Blood tests may disclose infection jaundice, pancreatitis, or other problems
When you are diagnosed with Gallstone then our Gallstone treatment specialist doctor Dr. NS Babu has treated depending on the harshness and how they could disrupt the quality of life. There are 2 methods of treating gallstone i.e.
- Medication:
Oral medications may help dissolve gallstones. But it may take months or years of treatment to dissolve the gallstones in this way. Sometimes medications don’t work. Medications for gallstones are not commonly prescribed and are reserved for those who cannot undergo surgery.
- Laparoscopic (Gallbladder Removal) Cholecystectomy Surgery:
Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy: Our Gallstone treatment specialist doctor may recommend surgery to remove the gallbladder since gallstones frequently recur. Once the gallbladder is removed, bile flows straight from the liver into the small intestine, rather than being stored in the gallbladder. We don’t need the gallbladder to live, and gallbladder removal doesn’t affect the ability to digest food, but it can cause diarrhea, which is usually temporary. Cholecystectomy is done using minimally invasive methods like laparoscopy rather than open procedures.
Laparoscopic Gallstone removal surgery has various benefits rather to normal surgery.
- Painless and Bloodless Procedure
- Minimal stitches, no scars
- 30 min procedure
- same-day discharge
- Resume work a few days
- No risk of recurrence
