Gallbladder Stones & Surgery | Dr. Banu Priya N | Manipal Indira Clinic

In this video, Dr. Banu Priya N, Consultant – General Surgery at Manipal Indira Clinic, explains that gallbladder stones commonly occur in obese women and older adults due to bile concentration or organ dysfunction. Since these stones can’t be dissolved or fragmented like kidney stones, cholecystectomy (surgical removal of the gallbladder) remains the only definitive treatment. She emphasizes the laparoscopic approach, a minimally invasive daycare procedure with smaller incisions, reduced pain, and faster recovery, while delaying surgery may lead to mucocele, empyema, or pancreatitis.
