Good: While some abdominal operations promote adhesions and scarring, both appendectomy and tubal ligation occur in the lower part of the abdomen, away from the gallbladder. Most experienced surgeons should be able to perform another laparoscopic surgery, but with the understanding that the degree of difficulty will increase chances of having to do an open procedure.

Could be done: Removal of gall bladder still possible even with abdominal scars , some times severe abdominal adhesions may prevent , but you have lower abdominal surgery , where upper abdominal adhesions will be minimal, and good luck.
