Laparoscopic surgery has now replaced open surgery as the first-choice of treatment for gallstones and inflammation of the gallbladder. .
In order to view into your abdomen and remove the gallbladder, a cholecystectomy is most frequently carried out by inserting a tiny video camera and specialised surgical equipment through four tiny incisions. This procedure is referred to as a laparoscopic cholecystectomy. The gallbladder may occasionally be removed with a single, substantial incision.
