Contrary to laparoscopic gallbladder surgery, biliary surgeons rarely undertake laparoscopic procedures on the bile duct due to their technical complexity. Due to the bile duct's deep abdominal location, lengthy incisions are required for open bile duct surgery.
Laparoscopic gallbladder removal is a relatively safe treatment that has been done on thousands of patients around the world. Laparoscopic surgery should be used whenever possible to remove the gallbladder.
These incisions typically cause a lot of discomfort and require a 4–12 week recuperation period. Compared to patients who undergo laparoscopic surgery and stay in the hospital for 1 to 3 days following surgery, the majority of open surgery patients require hospitalisation for 4 to 10 days.
Laparoscopic procedures are used in this surgery to remove stones from the bile duct. Small stones can move from the gallbladder into the bile duct in gallstone sufferers. Bile duct obstruction brought on by stones can result in pancreatitis and jaundice (inflammation of the pancreas). The gallbladder is removed as a kind of treatment.
Patients with strictures (narrowing) of the bile duct get jaundice because the bile cannot drain into the intestine and builds up in the blood. Both benign (non-cancerous) and malignant disorders can result in bile duct strictures.
