- Management modalities initially involves clinical and ultrasonographic (USG) diagnosis, followed by conservative medical management or modern surgical interventions by laparoscopy and endoscopy.
Aims & Objectives
Our study aims
- To look at the demographics ( age and sex incidence) and various clinical presentations.
- To analyse the relation of gall bladder diseases (with or without stones).
- Role of various diagnostic procedures- USG findings, gross and histopathological findings.
- To study treatment modalities- conservative and surgical.
- To study pathological finding of the removed gall bladder.
