Dangers of radiofrequency ablation of gallbladder polyps

Radiofrequency ablation of gallbladder polyps is a procedure to eliminate gallbladder polyps, which may involve damage to the gallbladder wall, leakage of bile, recurrence of gallbladder polyps and other hazards. Radiofrequency ablation of gallbladder polyps is to cauterize the adenomatous polyps. If the wall of the gallbladder is damaged during cauterization and bile leakage occurs, it may cause cholestatic peritonitis, which may result in symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, chills, fever, and severe pain in the right upper abdomen. Radiofrequency ablation of gallbladder polyps may also have the danger of recurrence of gallbladder polyps, if the cauterization is not complete, it will lead to polyp re-growth. The risk of doing radiofrequency ablation for gallbladder polyps is relatively high, and surgical treatment is recommended. In our daily life, we should eat more fluids and semi-fluids that are easy to digest, avoid greasy, fried, deep-fried, spicy and stimulating foods, and avoid strenuous exercise.
