Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy
Open Cholecystectomy
A gallbladder stone surgeon in Ahmedabad performs cholecystectomy, a surgical procedure to remove the gallbladder when gallstones cause persistent pain, inflammation, or infection. Gallstones are hardened deposits formed from bile components that can obstruct normal bile flow, leading to abdominal pain and digestive discomfort.
When gallstones result in repeated symptoms or complications, gallbladder removal surgery is often recommended as an effective and long-term treatment option. Advances in surgical techniques have made laparoscopic gallbladder surgery the preferred approach for many patients, as it involves small incisions, reduced post-operative discomfort, and quicker recovery.
Under expert medical care, including treatment provided by Dr. Mayank Gurjar, laparoscopic cholecystectomy is designed to improve patient comfort, reduce hospital stay, and lower the risk of complications, helping patients return to their normal activities sooner.
Types of Gallbladder Stone Surgery
There are two main types of gallbladder stone surgery:
Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy
This is the most common and minimally invasive method. It involves making several small incisions through which a laparoscope (a tiny camera) and surgical instruments are inserted. The surgeon views the inside of the abdomen on a monitor and removes the gallbladder through these small incisions. This method typically results in less pain, quicker recovery, and minimal scarring.
Open Cholecystectomy
This traditional method involves making a larger incision in the abdomen to remove the gallbladder. It may be necessary if the gallbladder is severely inflamed, or infected, or some complications make laparoscopic surgery unsafe. Recovery time is longer, and there may be more postoperative pain and scarring compared to the laparoscopic approach.
FISTULA SURGERY CARE PATH
Preparation & Recovery
A structured and medically guided approach before and after fistula surgery ensures safer outcomes, faster healing, and long-term relief.

Preoperative Assessment
Detailed evaluation including examination, imaging, and fitness assessment to determine the safest surgical approach.
