Treatment for gallbladder polyps?

With the dual influence of work pressure and environmental factors, people suffer from various diseases. The occurrence of diseases not only brings pain to the patient's body, but also brings difficult-to-heal scars to their families. Among them, gallbladder polyps are the best example. Gallbladder polyps are lumps of flesh on the gallbladder mucosa and must be removed. How to better cure gallbladder polyps is what every patient wants to know most.

There are two ways to treat gallbladder polyps. One is drug therapy and the other is surgical removal. Different degrees of gallbladder polyps need to be cured according to different symptoms. The following introduces the cure methods for gallbladder polyps. If you are interested, take a look.

For patients with small (10 mm) diameter, multiple, pedunculated gallbladder polyps, it is suggested that the lesions are likely to be pseudotumor polyps, and laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) is the first choice. For patients with polyp diameter >10mm and risk factors for malignant transformation of gallbladder polyps, it is suggested that they are tumorous polyps and routine open cholecystectomy should be performed. Frozen sections are routinely performed during surgery to clarify the pathological category. If it is a cancerous polyp, simple cholecystectomy can be performed when the tumor is limited to the mucosa; once the tumor invades the muscular layer, extended resection is required, including wedge resection of the gallbladder bed liver and lymph node dissection.

Clinically, LC treatment of gallbladder polyps faces the problem of discovering occult gallbladder cancer (T1, T2). Among them, tumor staging is crucial for choosing appropriate treatment options for occult gallbladder cancer. Simple cholecystectomy is effective for the treatment of T1 gallbladder cancer, but there is still controversy about the treatment of T2 tumors, that is, whether local lymph node dissection and resection of adjacent tissues are needed again.

In today's developed society, the incidence of gallbladder polyps is still very high. If the disease is not cured for a long time, it will seriously threaten your health. If you do not have a thorough understanding of the treatment of gallbladder polyps, it will delay the treatment time and allow the disease to further invade your body. Therefore, it is necessary to combine the correct treatment methods to completely cure gallbladder polyps.
