Stone that has slipped into the bile duct is usually diagnosed with the help of blood test (Liver function tests) & a MRCP. The procedure to remove such stone is called ERCP (Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangio pancreatography). After the removal of stone, a plastic stent is placed which will be removed after few weeks of operation.
Apart from the pain secondary to stone present within the gallbladder, the stones that slip into the bile duct may cause jaundice and pancreatitis. EUS (Endoscopic Ultrasound) helps in detecting such stones early and guiding precise treatment. Jaundice occurs secondary to blockage of the bile duct with the stone. Pancreatitis, that is swelling of the pancreas, is one of the most dreaded complications of bile duct stones.
The operation for removal of the gallbladder is called laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Four small holes are made for the procedure — three are 5 mm and one is 10 mm in size. The surgery usually lasts from 30 minutes to 2 hours, depending on the condition and anatomy.

You should see a doctor if you feel pain in the upper right abdomen, nausea after eating, or repeated indigestion. Early consultation helps prevent infection and other serious problems.
Doctors usually advise an ultrasound of the abdomen, which clearly shows the stones inside the gallbladder. Based on the report and your symptoms, the right treatment plan is made.
The gallbladder is removed when stones repeatedly cause pain, infection, or blockage. Removing it prevents future attacks and has no major effect on digestion. Most patients recover fully within a few days.
In some mild cases, medicines or diet changes may help, but most patients need surgery for a complete cure. Surgery offers permanent relief and prevents recurrence of stones.
If you have any kind of gastrointestinal or HPB surgical emergency, visit Dr. Jivraj Mehta Hospital. An expert doctor is always available & treatment will be provided at once.
