The earlier it is removed, the better..

Gallbladder stones, or gallstones, can lead to several complications.
The complication rate varies depending on factors such as the presence of symptoms, the patient's overall health, and the timing of treatment.

A few of the common complications include:

1. Cholecystitis: Inflammation of the gallbladder, which can occur in about 20% of patients with symptomatic gallstones.

2. Pancreatitis: Inflammation of the pancreas, which can occur if a gallstone blocks the pancreatic duct. This happens in approximately 3-5% of patients with gallstones.

3. Cholangitis: Infection of the bile duct, typically resulting from a blocked duct from a migrating gallstone to the main bileflow channel

Overall, the complication rates can vary, but timely intervention often reduces the risk of severe complications. If you have specific concerns or symptoms, it's best to consult a healthcare professional.

•Gallbladder cancer surgery•
Gallbladder cancer is a rare type of cancer that occurs in the gallbladder, a small organ located beneath the liver that stores bile, a digestive fluid. This cancer can develop in the cells lining the gallbladder and may spread to nearby organs or lymph nodes.

Symptoms:
Often asymptomatic in early stages; symptoms may include:
Abdominal pain, especially in the upper right quadrant
Nausea and vomiting
Jaundice (yellowing of the skin and eyes)
Unexplained weight loss
Bloating or indigestion

Treatment:
Surgery is the main treatment, often involving removal of the gallbladder (cholecystectomy) and surrounding tissue. (Operable)

Chemotherapy and radiation is used in advanced stages or when surgery isn't possible.

The prognosis varies significantly based on the stage at diagnosis. Early-stage gallbladder cancer has a better outlook, while advanced stages often have a poorer prognosis due to late detection.
