A member asked:
If i dont want to have titanium clips left in after cholecystectomy, can i ask for traditional ligature? is it even done anymore? thank you?

Great topic to discuss with your Surgeon. Since most cholecystectomy procedures are done laparoscopically, it probably won't be possible to do a traditional ligature which involves opening you up completely and is much more invasive. They can also discuss any doubts you have about titanium clips.
