What department does the gallbladder belong to?

Gallbladder diseases can be registered with the Department of Hepatobiliary Surgery or General Surgery, Gastroenterology and so on.
1. Hepatobiliary Surgery or General Surgery: Patients who need surgery for symptomatic gallstones, gallbladder polyps with cancerous potential, gallbladder cancer, bile duct cancer, bile duct stones, biliary atresia, etc. can go to Hepatobiliary Surgery. Some hospitals do not have a hepatobiliary surgery department, so you can go to the general surgery department.
2. Gastroenterology: Patients with chronic cholecystitis, gallbladder diseases that require regular checkups, such as mild gallbladder stones, and who do not need surgery for the time being can consult the gastroenterology department.
If the patient can’t identify or doesn’t know what department to consult, he or she can go to the hospital’s consultation desk, and the relevant personnel will guide the patient to seek medical treatment according to his or her symptoms.
