Symptomatic? Remove: Debris in the gallbladder or gallbladder sludge refers to the appearance of very small particulates in the bile within the gallbladder.  Several factors can contribute to the development.  When bile is excreted after meals, the thick sludge can cause mild obstruction that leads to pain or rarely pancreatitis.  If asymptomatic, it can be observed, otherwise consider having the gallbladder removed.

Question 4

i was wondering what are the causes of gall bladder stones and kidney stones?

Accepted Answer

Not related: They are not really related metabolically or anatomically.  Gall bladder stones occur in part of the gastrointestinal tract and often contain high concentrations of bile and cholesterol.  Kidney stones occur in the urinary tract and often contain calcium and minerals excreted by the kidney.

Question 5

what is the cause of a distended gall bladder?

Accepted Answer

Depends: Your gallbladder will be distended when you are not eating.  It fills with bile and then, when you eat, it empties.  This is not a problem.  It is normal physiology.  The problem happens when your gb is obstructed by a stone or inflammation and cannot empty.  This can lead to infection and severe pain, fevers, etc.  If you have no stones on ultrasound you may need a hida to see how ur gb empties.

Generally none: Polyps are often an incidental finding.

Question 8

could an inflamed gall bladder cause bloating?

Accepted Answer

Yes, : It could. I hope you are treated properly and after the inflammation subsides one should consider removal of your gb that has probably stones in it. Do not gamble severe complication can occur so the best is get rid of it as soon as you will be in best of shape. Nobody like to operate during inflammation unless it is a must.

Question 9

why would the removal of the gall bladder cause diarrhea?

Accepted Answer

No reservoir 4 bile: The gallbladder normally serves to store bile that is made continuously from the liver.  After a meal, the gallbladder contracts, ejecting bile into the intestine, to aid in digestion.  When the gallbladder is removed, the bile no longer is stored but excreted continuously into the intestine.  If there is no food, the bile can be irritating and cause diarrhea.  Over time, this should improve

Question 10

what are reasons why would the removal of the gall bladder cause diarrhea?

Accepted Answer

It doesn't: Removing the gallbladder does not lead to diarrhea , as your bile production has not changed. Some people do develop urgency after gallbladder surgery. That is, about 30-40 minutes after eating the patient has an aggressive need to have bowel movement which may be loose. This is self limited, but can be eliminated with Imodium (loperamide) ad. I allow my patients full dietary intake after surgery. Good luck.
