Searching for gallbladder stone removal thru laproscopy, please help what do i do?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
See a surgeon: I believe you mean cholecystectomy for the treatment of gall stones that are symptomatic. Removing the stone surgically is not done. It is ineffective and new stones will form.
