Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy

Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy in Chennai

Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy is the modern, minimally invasive gold standard for gallbladder removal. It’s fast, precise, and built for real-life recovery—not week-long bed rest. Using keyhole incisions and high-definition cameras, surgeons remove the gallbladder with minimal trauma, less pain, and faster healing. This approach has become the default worldwide because it cuts complications, reduces hospital stay, and gets patients back to normal life quickly. Simply put: smaller cuts, smarter surgery, better outcomes—this is gallbladder care upgraded for today.

What Is Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy?

  • A minimally invasive procedure to remove the gallbladder
  • Performed using 3–4 tiny incisions
  • Guided by a laparoscope (HD camera)
  • Done under general anesthesia
  • Typically completed within 45–90 minutes

Why Is the Gallbladder Removed?

  • Gallstones causing pain
  • Recurrent gallbladder infections
  • Inflammation (cholecystitis)
  • Gallbladder polyps
  • Biliary colic affecting quality of life

Gallstones don’t dissolve on their own. If they’re symptomatic, surgery is the cleanest fix.

How the Procedure Is Done

  • General anesthesia for complete comfort
  • Small ports placed through the abdomen
  • Camera provides magnified internal view
  • Gallbladder safely separated and removed
  • Incisions closed with minimal scarring

Precision > force. That’s the laparoscopic advantage.

Benefits Over Open Surgery

  • Minimal pain
  • Tiny scars
  • Lower infection risk
  • Short hospital stay
  • Faster return to work
  • Less blood loss

Old-school open surgery is now the exception, not the rule.

Recovery Timeline (Realistic, Not Sugar-Coated)

  • Same-day or next-day discharge
  • Mild soreness for a few days
  • Normal diet resumed gradually
  • Back to desk work in 5–7 days
  • Full activity in 2–3 weeks

Most patients underestimate how quick recovery actually is.

Diet After Surgery

  • Start with light, low-fat meals
  • Avoid oily foods initially
  • Small frequent meals work best
  • Normal diet usually resumes within weeks

Your body adapts. No lifelong food bans.

Safety & Complication Profile

  • Very low complication rates when done by experienced surgeons
  • Rare risks: bile duct injury, infection, bleeding
  • Significantly safer than delaying surgery in symptomatic patients

Delay is riskier than action.
