Advanced Treatment for Gallbladder Stones (Cholelithiasis) at IIGU Hospitals Bangalore
Gallbladder stones (gallstones or cholelithiasis) are hardened deposits of digestive fluid and cholesterol that form inside the gallbladder. When gallstones block the bile duct or cystic duct, they cause severe biliary colic pain, inflammation (cholecystitis), jaundice, or life-threatening pancreatitis.
At Indus Institute of Gastro & Urology (IIGU Hospitals), Bangalore, we provide the gold-standard treatment: Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy. Unlike medications that have near-zero success rates in permanently dissolving stones, keyhole laparoscopic removal eliminates the diseased gallbladder and permanently cures the problem with micro-incisions and rapid 24-hour recovery.
Our Specialized Treatment Techniques:
3D/4K Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy
Advanced keyhole removal of the gallbladder using 3 to 4 tiny micro-incisions (5–10 mm). Enables 24-hour hospital stay, minimal post-op discomfort, and virtually invisible scars.
Single-Incision Laparoscopic Surgery (SILS)
An advanced scarless technique where the entire procedure is performed through a single hidden incision inside the navel (belly button), leaving no noticeable abdominal scar.
ERCP for Common Bile Duct (CBD) Stones
Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography to safely extract stones that have slipped into the main bile duct without opening the abdomen, performed prior to or alongside laparoscopic surgery.
Emergency Acute Cholecystitis Care
24/7 acute surgical management for infected, gangrenous, or impacted gallbladders with high-definition laparoscopic technology to prevent gallstone perforation.
