Gallbladder stones: a common surgical disease, the first symptom in the history of most patients is gastric discomfort, which is mostly diagnosed as gastric disease, but is not cured for a long time. Therefore, for patients who feel they have gastric disease, they should not forget to undergo hepatobiliary ultrasound examinations along with examinations such as gastroscopy to clarify whether the gastric discomfort is caused by gallbladder stones or not. When do gallbladder stones need to be treated surgically? Patients with symptoms (typical biliary colic, right upper abdominal pain, dyspepsia, epigastric fullness, belching, etc.) of gallbladder stones need surgery to prevent the development of acute cholecystitis or other serious complications such as acute pancreatitis due to gallbladder stones. Laparoscopic cholecystectomy is currently the standard treatment for gallbladder stones. Asymptomatic gallbladder stones (quiescent gallbladder stones) should be considered for elective surgery in the following cases: 1. stones larger than 3 cm; 2. combined with surgery requiring open abdomen; 3. with gallbladder polyps; 4. thickened gallbladder wall; 5. calcified gallbladder wall or porcelain gallbladder; 6. gallbladder stones in children; 7. combined with diabetes; 8. with cardiopulmonary dysfunction; 9. with family history of gallbladder cancer combined with stones; 10. Gallbladder stones have been found for more than 10 years. For asymptomatic gallbladder stones between 5mm-1cm in diameter, they can be dynamically observed, and should be treated promptly once symptoms such as epigastric fullness and discomfort and pain appear.
