Removal of the gallbladder is a commonly performed procedure when the organ is no longer functioning properly.

On rare occasion an “open approach” is used which involves using a single, larger incision to access the gallbladder. However, removal is most commonly performed through a laparoscopic or robotic approach. In most cases you will be able to go home the same day of surgery.

Your surgeon will discuss these options with you during your consultation and will address any questions you may have at that time.
