Gallbladder Removal in Yelahanka — What to Expect

Laparoscopic cholecystectomy (gallbladder removal) is the most commonly performed surgical procedure in North Bangalore. If you have gallstones causing pain, nausea, or attacks after fatty meals — surgery is usually the definitive solution. At Dhaara Hospital, we perform this as a routine day procedure with patients going home the same evening in most cases.

Yelahanka residents: Dhaara Hospital is the only hospital within Yelahanka town offering full laparoscopic surgery. No need to travel to Koramangala or Jayanagar for a routine cholecystectomy.
  1. Pre-surgical assessment — Blood tests, ultrasound confirmation, anaesthesia evaluation. Usually done 3–5 days before surgery.
  2. Admission (Day of surgery) — Arrive 2 hours before the scheduled time. Fasting from midnight the previous night.
  3. Surgery (45–60 min) — 4 small incisions (0.5–1 cm each). The gallbladder is clipped and removed through one port. General anaesthesia.
  4. Recovery room (2–3 hours) — Waking from anaesthesia, vital monitoring, first sips of water.
  5. Discharge — Most patients go home by 6–8 PM on surgery day with oral medications and diet advice.

Can gallstones be dissolved with medicines instead of surgery?

Dissolution drugs work only for tiny cholesterol stones in select gallbladders, take months, and stones recur in most patients after stopping. Surgery removes the factory — the only definitive cure.

Is surgery urgent or can I wait?

Elective keyhole surgery after recovery from an attack is the safest route. But 'waiting indefinitely' between attacks is gambling: the next migrating stone can cause pancreatitis or bile-duct infection, which are emergencies.

Will I need to avoid fatty food forever?

No. After a 3–4 week gentle transition, most patients eat everything in moderation. The stomach-discomfort many blame on food is usually the gallbladder acting up before surgery, not after.

What if stones are also in the bile duct?

We detect this with MRCP or liver tests and clear the duct by ERCP first, then remove the gallbladder — both services are in-house at Dhaara, so your treatment isn't split across hospitals.

How experienced is the team at Dhaara with this surgery?

Laparoscopic cholecystectomy is among the most frequently performed surgeries worldwide, and our surgical team performs it routinely with the critical-view-of-safety technique — the international standard for safe removal.

Signs Your Gallbladder Needs Attention

What Happens to Digestion Without a Gallbladder?

The gallbladder only stores bile; the liver continues making it. After removal, bile drips continuously instead of being squirting at meals — the body adapts within weeks. A minority notice looser stools after very fatty meals initially; our dieticians give you a simple 4-week transition plan. The alternative — keeping a gallbladder that throws stones — carries the real risks: pancreatitis, cholangitis, jaundice.
