Is their a need to remove the gallstones at the bladder?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: If gallstones are present and the patient has symptoms related to the gallstones, the gallbladder should be removed. In healthy people, with no symptoms in which the stones were discovered incidentally, there is no indication to operate.
