A member asked:

Is it possible to have bile problems after having your gallbladder removed.?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Yes: A small minority of people can continue to form stones in the bile ducts despite having the gallbladder removed. Unfortunately, biliary problems can also result as a complication from the surgery to remove the gallbladder.
