Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy

What is cholecystectomy?

Cholecystectomy is surgical removal of the gall bladder. The gall bladder is an organ situated below the liver that works as a storehouse of bile (digestive juice from the liver). If the gall bladder function becomes deranged, it forms gallstones or gets infected. In these cases, it has to be removed from the body. Removal of the gall bladder (Cholecystectomy) is perfectly compatible with normal life, and does not cause any disturbance in normal digestion or body function.
