Polyp in Gallbladder
by StepD, Apr 22, 2009 12:15PM
I dont know if this is the right forum to post this in or not but I was told that it is pretty common to have a polyp in your gallbladder. I have been doing some research on the web and I am not having much luck in finding information on it. Could someone please tell me where I could go to find info on side effects of this or if there are any at all. Thanks in advance for any and all help.

In general, in the past if the polyp wasn't blocking the opening to the cystic duct and if it was a small size, the polyp was just watched. If it grew and reached a specific size, removal of the GB was suggested. Recently however, I believe there is some suggestion that polyps in the GB should be treated as polyps elsewhere in some cases are now being viewed - as deleterious - and the GB should be removed.
