A member asked:
What can you tell me about hyperactive gallbladder ? ejection fraction 90% last year, and 94% this year. should it be removed if symptoms persist?
3 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Yes for symptoms: If you find symptoms more frequent and smaller triggers, yes indeed an elective procedure always better than emergency one.

Maybe: Hyperkinetic or hyperactive gallbladder is not generally accepted as a diagnosis. A small group of patients (63) was symptomatic with cck infusion with greater than 80% ejection fraction. 28 of these patients underwent removal of gall bladder. 97% of these 28 patients showed improvement in symptoms following surgery. . More published retrospective and prospective studies needed.
