Gallbladder stones will not recur after gallbladder removal, but diseases such as bile duct stones may occur.
After gallbladder stones are surgically removed from the gallbladder, the stones will certainly not recur because the gallbladder has been removed. However, when they are not detected before surgery or when gallbladder stones fall into the common bile duct before or during surgery, postoperative bile duct stones may occur. Therefore, it is necessary to routinely check the liver function and upper abdominal CT and MRCP if necessary to check the bile ducts for stones before surgery.
Generally, cholecystectomy does not increase the probability of intra- and extra-hepatic bile duct stone formation. After cholecystectomy, it is common to see a doctor about one month after the operation to check whether there is any recurrence of stones.
After cholecystectomy, you should pay attention to your dietary habits for 1 week, eat more fiber-rich fresh vegetables and fruits, and reduce the intake of greasy and high-fat foods, and gradually go back to a normal diet after one week. You should strengthen your exercise in your daily life, control your weight, and reduce the factors that lead to the formation of stones.
