What is Gallbladder Disease?

The gallbladder is a small, pear-shaped organ located beneath the liver that stores bile, a digestive fluid that helps break down fats. Gallbladder disease refers to conditions in which this organ does not function properly, most commonly due to gallstones or inflammation. When gallstones block the normal flow of bile or the gallbladder becomes inflamed or infected, it can lead to symptoms such as severe abdominal pain, nausea, bloating, and vomiting, often triggered after eating fatty foods. The most common and effective treatment is cholecystectomy, a surgical procedure to remove the gallbladder. Risk factors for gallbladder disease include obesity, rapid weight loss, a high-fat or low-fiber diet, diabetes, pregnancy, certain cholesterol-lowering medications, and a family history of gallstones.

Common Gallbladder Conditions & Procedures

  • Cholelithiasis (Gallstones): Hardened deposits of bile that can block the bile duct and cause severe pain
  • Cholecystitis (Gallbladder Inflammation): Often caused by gallstones blocking the cystic duct, leading to infection
  • Choledocholithiasis (Common Bile Duct Stones): Gallstones that have migrated into the bile duct
  • Biliary Dyskinesia: Poor gallbladder function without stones, causing chronic digestive discomfort
  • Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy: Minimally invasive removal of the gallbladder using small incisions
  • Robotic Cholecystectomy: Advanced robotic-assisted removal offering enhanced precision and faster recovery
