The cost of gallbladder surgery is determined by a number of factors such as geographical location, hospital level, and the patient’s condition and personal constitution, and is also very much related to the surgical method as well as the gallbladder disease suffered, generally ranging from 10,000 to 15,000 yuan, and it is recommended to refer to the local hospital for the specific price.
There are two main types of gallbladder surgery, namely, open resection and laparoscopic cholecystectomy, the former is a routine surgery, the cost is generally around 10,000 yuan, the latter surgery is less traumatic, faster recovery, the cost will be relatively higher, generally around 15,000 yuan. Consult with your local hospital for specific prices.
In addition, if the patient is combined with biliary pancreatitis, or due to biliary obstruction caused by acute obstructive septic cholangitis, the cost of this case will be higher, usually about 20,000 yuan.
If the patient has developed infectious shock, or biliary tract obstruction under ERCP stone decompression, the cost of the patient is likely to be even higher, because the simple ERCP treatment requires about 10,000 to 20,000 yuan, if combined with ERCP stone removal or papillotomy and other treatments, plus the cost of laparoscopic cholecystectomy, the approximate cost of 20,000 to 35,000 yuan.
Of course, if the patient is older, suffers from cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, and combines with complications such as bile leakage and bleeding after the operation, the cost of the operation will be relatively increased and the hospitalization time will be relatively prolonged.
