ABOUT THE PROCEDURE
What is Gall Bladder Cancer Surgery?
Gall Bladder Cancer is a malignant tumor that develops in the gallbladder, a small organ located beneath the liver that stores bile. The disease often begins in the inner lining of the gallbladder and may gradually spread to nearby tissues, liver, lymph nodes, or distant organs if left untreated. Since early-stage Gall Bladder Cancer rarely causes noticeable symptoms, many patients are diagnosed incidentally during gallbladder surgery or after imaging performed for gallstones. Treatment depends on the stage of the cancer and may involve surgery, chemotherapy, targeted therapy, or a combination of treatments. Dr. Prashanth Koyyoda specializes in advanced surgical management aimed at complete tumor removal while preserving the patient’s overall health.

HOW IS THE PROCEDURE PERFORMED?
How is Gall Bladder Cancer Surgery Performed?
Esophageal cancer surgery removes the affected esophagus, nearby lymph nodes, and reconstructs digestion by connecting the stomach to remaining esophagus.
Initial Evaluation
Dr. Prashanth Koyyoda performs a detailed evaluation, including physical examination, blood tests, liver function tests, tumor markers, ultrasound, CT scan, MRI, MRCP, and PET scan when required. The stage of cancer is carefully assessed before planning treatment.
General Anesthesia
Gall Bladder Cancer surgery is performed under general anesthesia to ensure patient comfort and safety throughout the procedure.
Surgical Procedure
The type of surgery depends on the stage of cancer. Early-stage disease may require removal of the gallbladder, while more advanced cancers often require radical cholecystectomy involving removal of part of the liver, nearby lymph nodes, and surrounding tissues to achieve complete cancer clearance.
Lymph Node Dissection
Nearby lymph nodes are removed and examined to accurately determine the stage of cancer and guide further treatment if required.
Postoperative Care
Following surgery, patients receive pain management, nutritional guidance, infection prevention, wound care, and close monitoring. Depending on the pathology results, chemotherapy or additional oncology treatment may be recommended.
RECOVERY
Recovery After Gall Bladder Cancer Surgery
Recovery after esophageal cancer surgery includes gradual healing, nutritional support, pain management, follow-up care, and a steady return to daily activities.
01.
Hospital Stay
Most patients remain in the hospital for approximately 5 to 10 days, depending on the extent of surgery and recovery.
02.
Diet
Patients initially start with liquids before gradually progressing to soft foods and a healthy balanced diet as digestion improves.
03.
Activity
Light walking is encouraged soon after surgery. Most patients resume routine daily activities within 4 to 6 weeks, while complete recovery may take several weeks depending on the complexity of surgery.
04.
Follow-up
Regular follow-up visits include physical examination, imaging, blood tests, liver function assessment, and ongoing cancer surveillance to monitor recovery and detect recurrence early.
