Currently for symptomless and small patients can choose conservative treatment, generally through the standardized conservative treatment, gallbladder stones generally will not continue to progress, for this type of patient if you have to undergo surgery, the harm outweighs the good. However, for symptomatic gallbladder stones, diameter greater than 3cm, combined with multiple polyps, etc. need to be operated to avoid deterioration of the situation, the current common surgical treatment for laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Not all gallbladder stones have surgical indications, they need to meet the indications of surgery, under the guidance of the doctor for standardized treatment.
