A cholecystectomy surgery is the surgical removal of your gall bladder. It is also performed to treat gallstones and its resultant complications. Laparoscopic cholecystectomy is one of the beneficial types of this surgery.
A list is mentioned below that includes names of Noida's health care centers providing laparoscopic cholecystectomy surgery facility.
Your doctor may recommend a cholecystectomy for treating the following conditions:
Your surgeon may prescribe you with a solution that you must consume a few days before the cholecystectomy surgery. This solution will flush out the stool from your intestine. Patients will be advice to avoid drinking or eating anything for four hours prior the surgery. Also, patients must stop consuming certain medications and supplements before the surgery.
A laparoscopic cholecystectomy surgery is also known as a "key hole surgery." During this surgery, some small key hole size incisions are made near your navel or at the right side of your tummy. A thin tube is inserted from this incision to pump carbon dioxide gas inside your tummy. This gas inflates the abdomen region making the gall bladder accessible for the surgeon. The next step includes insertion of a laparoscope (device having camera and light). The attached camera captures the internal images and displays it on the monitor screen. The surgeon can view the internal structure of the abdomen by looking at the monitor. Special surgical tools are inserted from one of the incision to cut and remove the gall bladder. After removal of gall bladder, gas is released and incisions are sutured using stitches. A cotton dressing is done to avoid bleeding from that area.
After a laparoscopic cholecystectomy surgery, patients are allowed to go home on the same day. One can consume food and liquid diet after the surgery. Walking is also allowed. Most patients recover within a week.
