Gallbladder Surgery for Gallbladder Stones Treatment

The most common treatment for gallstones is removing your gallbladder. 胆囊不是一个重要器官,这意味着没有它你也可以正常生活. It is a storage organ for bile. Bile helps to digest the fats we eat.

Once your surgeon removes your gallbladder, 储存在胆囊中的胆汁会排入肝胆管和总胆管. 从那里,它直接进入十二指肠,也就是肠道的第一部分.

Gallbladder Removal Surgery

Surgery to remove a gallbladder is called a cholecystectomy. 有两种不同的类型:腹腔镜(有摄像头)和开放式(有更大的切口).

Laparoscopic Gallbladder Surgery (Cholecystectomy)

在腹腔镜胆囊切除术中,外科医生会在你的腹部做几个小切口. 这些切口中最大的通常是2到2.5英寸长. The surgeon inserts a laparoscope, or an instrument with a camera attached to it, to see inside your body. The image is magnified on a video monitor, 让你的外科医生近距离观察你的器官和组织.

然后外科医生用仪器小心地将胆囊从肝脏中分离出来, bile ducts, and other structures. 然后外科医生通过一个小切口切除你的胆囊.

对于这种手术,患者通常接受全身麻醉(完全进入睡眠状态)。.

Surgeons perform most cholecystectomies with laparoscopy. 大多数患者都能在手术当天回家. 大约一周后你就能开始正常活动了.

Open Cholecystectomy

When your gallbladder is severely inflamed or infected, or you have internal scar tissue from previous operations, your surgeon may perform an open cholecystectomy. For this procedure, 外科医生会在你的腹部开一个四到六英寸长的切口. This incision is to remove the gallbladder. 

在这个过程中,病人通常接受全身麻醉. 从开放胆囊切除术中恢复可能需要一些人在医院呆上一个星期. 大约一个月后,你就可以开始正常活动了.

如果在腹腔镜胆囊切除术中出现问题,你的外科医生也可以进行开放式胆囊切除术. 如果由于某种原因腹腔镜手术不能安全进行,就可以这样做.

Possible Gallbladder Surgery Complications

少数人在胆囊切除后大便更软、更频繁. This is because bile flows into the duodenum more often. These changes in bowel habits are usually temporary. 然而,一定要和你的医疗保健大发娱乐提供者讨论这些问题. 

Other complications from gallbladder surgery are rare. The most serious of these is injury to the bile ducts. 受伤的胆总管会漏出胆汁,引起疼痛,并可能引起感染或肝损伤. 你可能需要一个或多个额外的手术来修复胆管. Fortunately, this is the least common complication of gallbladder surgery, and happens in fewer than one percent of all operations.

Gallbladder Surgery Scars

胆囊手术留下的疤痕取决于你做的手术类型. 要进行腹腔镜手术,外科医生只需要很小的切口. 这些部位的位置取决于你的外科医生使用的技术. 大多数外科医生会使用不需要移除的可溶解缝合线.
