How long does it take to recover from liver and bile duct stones?

The recovery time for hepatectomy surgery is usually 5 to 10 days, and you can usually resume eating and drinking three days after surgery. The stitches of the abdominal incision can be removed one week after surgery, and it takes about one month to fully recover. After 4 to 6 weeks, the T-tube can be removed after T-tube imaging and choledochoscopy to confirm that there are no residual stones. The bile-intestinal anastomosis surgery has a significant impact on the intestinal function because the small intestine has to be cut off and then reconnected with the bile duct. Of course, with the further improvement of the theory of accelerated rehabilitation surgery and the deepening of the guidance role for clinicians, the speed of recovery after hepatobiliary surgery and gastrointestinal surgery has become faster and faster.
