Laparoscopic Gallbladder Surgery – Cholecystectomy

Laparoscopic cholecystectomy is a minimally invasive operation used to remove the gallbladder, most commonly for symptomatic gallstones or gallbladder inflammation. The procedure is performed through a few small abdominal incisions using a camera and specialised instruments. Compared with conventional open surgery, suitable patients generally experience smaller wounds, less postoperative discomfort and earlier recovery. In complicated or emergency cases, the surgeon may occasionally need to convert to an open procedure to ensure safety.
