and Other Biliary Problems
Removing the gallbladder eliminates the organ in which most gallstones form, but it does not make every future bile-duct problem impossible.
Occasionally, a stone may already be present in the common bile duct at the time of surgery, or stones may later develop within the biliary system.
Symptoms can include:
severe pain in the upper right or upper middle abdomen
jaundice
dark urine
pale stools
fever
chills
nausea or vomiting
A blocked bile duct can become serious and may require urgent treatment.
