Cholecystectomy Surgery And Cost

The cholecystectomy is also called as gallbladder surgery. It is the process to remove the gallbladder.

Types of gallbladder surgery:

1.      Gallbladder surgery : The surgeon will remove the gallbladder and gallstones through various small cuts made in the abdomen. The surgeon inflates the abdomen with air or carbon dioxide in order to see clearly.

2.      Open gallbladder surgery:  During this procedure, the surgeon will make a 5 to 7 inch incision (cut) on the abdomen to take out the gallbladder. You’ll have to undergo open surgery if you have a bleeding disorder. You may also need it if you are suffering from a severe kind of gallbladder disease, are very overweight, or are in the last trimester of pregnancy.

After surgery, bile flows from the liver (where it is produced) through the bile duct into the small intestine. As the gallbladder has been removed, the body will no longer store bile between meals but it has very minimal effect on digestion.

Why is gallbladder surgery required?

Laparoscopic gallbladder surgery is the best possible way of treating gallstones that cause the symptoms. Laparoscopic surgery is most commonly used when there are no other factors to complicate the surgery.

Who needs gallbladder surgery?

If the gallstones are causing any symptoms, then no surgery is required. The surgery is required if stone blocks one of your bile ducts. This causes a gallbladder attack.

Procedure:

General anesthesia is administered before the Cholecystectomy. The procedure can be either laparoscopic or open according to the condition.

Open Cholecystectomy generally takes 1 to 2 hours. The surgeon will put a cut in right side of the abdomen. The liver and gallbladder are visible by pulling muscles around it. The gallbladder is removed and the cut is sutured.

The surgeon begins the laparoscopic cholecystectomy by making four small incisions in the abdomen. An instrument with a camera fitted at the end called a laparoscope is inserted in one of the incisions, and other surgical tools are inserted in the other incisions. The laparoscope allows the surgeon to see the area which is affected on a monitor or screen and remove the gallbladder. The bile duct is also screened beforehand for any abnormalities. Once the gallbladder is removed, incisions are sewed and the patient is taken to the recovery area.

Risks:

The overall risk of gallbladder surgery is very low. The most serious possible complications may be:

·         Infection of an incision.

·         Internal bleeding.

·         Injury to the common bile duct.

Other uncommon complications may include:

·         Gallstones that remain in the abdominal cavity.

·         Bile that leaks into the abdominal cavity.

·         Injury to the major blood vessels in the abdomen that is carrying blood from the heart to the liver (hepatic artery). This is rare.

·         A gallstone can get into the common bile duct.

·         The liver being cut.

Surgery for Shoulder Dislocation

The shoulder dislocation happens when head of the humerus is out of shoulder joint. There are some symptoms include shoulder pain, instability.

Mostly there are two types of surgeries which are used:

1. Arthroscopic Shoulder Surgery:

The surgery for dislocated shoulder is required to tight the torn or stretch ligaments. The surgeon may also repair the torn labrum, the ring of cartilage which surrounds the shoulder socket and stabilize the humerus. To aim of surgery is to repair these tissues.

An arthroscopic surgery is performed by using an arthroscope, which is inserted  in the joint through a small cut. It contain a video camera and a light at one end. After getting to the position small surgical instruments are inserted and then re position the torn ligament on bone is done.

It is usually performed using general anesthesia. The surgeons also use an injection called as nerve block. A nerve block provide 10 to 12 hours of pain relief.

2. Open Shoulder Surgery:
   The open surgery means that the doctor/surgeon operate the joint from a single cut made above the shoulder joint, instead of having various small cuts. The doctor perform the open surgery to repair injured ligaments.

To repair the bone loss in glenoid socket caused by the repeated injury, the doctor take a piece of living bone, called as bone graft, from other part of body and shape it to fit the rim of glenoid to create deeper socket. The bone  graft fuses with the shoulder socket to form a solid bone.
