People have been battling gallbladder stones for a long time and there are many different treatment options. For resting gallbladder stones, regular follow-up and observation are possible, with surgery as an elective treatment option. For symptomatic gallbladder stones, non-surgical treatment options are simply available. ① Lithotripsy. As I mentioned in my previous article, the majority of gallbladder stones are cholesterol stones. For cholesterol stones, litholytic drugs such as ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) or goose deoxycholic acid (CDCA) or gallbladder perfusion drugs are available for lithotripsy. However, the recurrence rate is extremely high. ② Extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy. It was invoked from the treatment of kidney stones, but its complications during the application of gallbladder stones are extremely high. I strongly recommend not to use it, otherwise there is no medicine for regret. For all gallbladder stones, the best treatment is surgery. However, I believe that a significant number of people can save their gallbladder. Surgery: ① Traditional open cholecystectomy, the surgical incision is about 10cm, and the postoperative hospital stay is about 7~10 days. ②Small incision cholecystectomy, the length of the incision is about 3~6cm, and the number of postoperative hospitalization days is about 7~10 days. ③Laparoscopic cholecystectomy, two incisions of about 1.0cm, 1-2 incisions of about 0.5cm, postoperative hospitalization days of about 2~5 days. ④ Gallbladder preservation and lithotripsy. For patients who are young and still have functional gallbladder, etc., biliary stone preservation can be considered. However, postoperative recurrence is a problem that cannot be avoided. The prevention of recurrence requires not only long-term oral anti-inflammatory and biliary drugs, but also changes in life and dietary habits, so that lithogenic bile can be restored to normal bile.
