What is cholecystectomy?
4 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Gallbladder removal: Cholecystectomy is the technical term used for removal of one's gallbladder. We usually accomplish this through laparoscopy, which entails 3 (or 4) small incisions in the abdomen. Most patients recover within a few days of the procedure.
