What are the Pros and Cons of Gallbladder-Preserving Polyp Removal Surgery?

Gallbladder-preserving polypectomy is actually a treatment method, but the pros and cons of these surgical treatment methods must be carefully weighed. Therefore, for patients who want to undergo this surgical treatment, it is also necessary to understand its advantages and disadvantages first, so that they can choose the most suitable and effective treatment plan according to their own situation and needs, and reduce the harm caused by the disease.

The advantage of gallbladder-preserving polypectomy is that it can help preserve the gallbladder, which is of great significance to a person's physical health. Additionally, it has less impact on digestive function, thus reducing the risk of various complications or sequelae that may occur after gallbladder removal. If conditions permit, gallbladder-preserving polypectomy can be considered.

However, the disadvantages of gallbladder-preserving polypectomy should also be understood. For example, in some cases where malignancy is suspected, gallbladder-preserving polypectomy may easily lead to the spread of tumors and make it difficult to cure them completely. In addition, there may be cases of multiple polyps, which may result in incomplete removal. Some people may develop gallbladder inflammation after undergoing this surgical treatment. If proper care is not taken during the recovery period, gallbladder function may be abnormal or various chronic changes may occur in the gallbladder after suturing. Therefore, it is important to discuss with a doctor which treatment method to choose.
