Is gallbladder polyp 1cm serious and how to treat it?

Gallbladder polyps with a diameter of 1cm are considered to be more serious, this is because gallbladder polyps with a diameter of more than 1cm have the risk of becoming cancerous, and surgical treatment is recommended. Therefore, it is recommended that the patient should go to the hospital as soon as possible, complete the preoperative examination, exclude the contraindications, and undergo surgery, which can be the popular minimally invasive surgery, laparoscopic cholecystectomy, because 1cm gallbladder polyp has the potential for cancer, and the patient needs to be sent to the pathology biopsy after the surgery to clarify the nature of the polyp. If the pathology report shows gallbladder cancer, then further radical cholecystectomy for gallbladder cancer is needed. After the operation, patients need to have a light diet, avoiding spicy and stimulating food and greasy food, and eating protein-rich food, which is helpful for patients’ wound healing, and report to the doctor if they have any discomforts during the hospitalization period in order to avoid delaying and affecting the therapeutic effect.
