Gallstone Treatment

1. GALLSTONE TREATMENT WHAT ARE GALLSTONES? Gallstones are pieces of solid material that form in your gallbladder, a small organ under your liver. If you have them, you might hear your doctor say you have cholelithiasis. Your gallbladder stores and releases bile, a fluid made in your liver, to help in digestion. GALLSTONE TYPES The two main kinds of gallstones are: Cholesterol stones. These are usually yellow- green. They're the most common, making up 80% of gallstones. Pigment stones. These are smaller and darker. They're made of bilirubin CAUSES OF GALLSTONE Gallstones may form if bile contains too much cholesterol, too much bilirubin, or not enough bile salts. Researchers do not fully understand why these changes in bile occur. Gallstones also may form if the gallbladder does not empty completely or often enough. TREATMENT FOR GALLSTONE Surgery to remove the gallbladder, called cholecystectomy, is one of the most common operations performed on adults in the United States. The gallbladder is not an essential organ, which means you can live normally without a gallbladder.
