[|Human|] I have 2 small gallbladder polyps seen in my ultrasound 2mm and 3mm in diameter. My doctor does not seem to be much concerned about these polyps. These were intially seen in March 2009 and I had follow-up scans every six months and they have not increased in size. I dont have any symptoms. Do I need removal of gallbladder surgery ?
[|AI|]  Hi.noted history of gallbladder polyps. Your doctor is doing conservative management for now. Regular monitoring is advised to observe the behavior of the polyps. Keep in mind that increasing in number and size of polyps are very important. Another important thing also, any polyp has a risk of malignant transformation. It is best if you discuss with your doctor, preferably a general surgeon, re definitive management, which is an elective (not an emergency case) cholecystectomy (laparoscopic or open). Other diagnostics (such as blood exams) and management (medical and/or surgical) will be directed accordingly. Hope this helps. Good day!!~ Chat Doctor.
