Can gallbladder polyps heal on their own?

  In most cases, gallbladder polyps do not heal on their own, but they usually do not require treatment and can only be observed, and only a few of them require surgical treatment.  Gallbladder polyps are lesions of the gallbladder itself, generally more than 80% are cholesterol-like polyps, about 15% are inflammatory polyps, and about 5% are true polyps. Most cholesterol polyps are usually stable and usually do not require treatment as long as they do not show significant symptoms and do not have serious manifestations of cholecystitis. True polyps, on the other hand, are a precancerous lesion and require consideration of surgical treatment. When gallbladder polyps are larger than 1 cm in diameter, surgery is usually required.  Patients with cholesterol polyps will usually have their cholesterol polyp growth controlled through good lifestyle habits, including three meals in regular intervals, a well-structured diet, drinking more water, and paying attention to regular checkups. However, those with true polyps should be treated actively and operated if necessary.
