[Current situation of surgical treatment of gallbladder polyps and some problems that should be paid attention to]

Gallbladder polyp is a common disease of gallbladder, the incidence of gallbladder polyp in China is about 5%~10%, and the trend is increasing year by year. The patients with gallbladder polyps had no obvious clinical symptoms, which was more than that found by ultrasonography during physical examination. At present, the diameter of gallbladder polyps>10 mm is still used by clinicians as the main surgical indication for cholecystectomy. According to the data, about 80% to 90% of gallbladder polyps are cholesterol type polyps and benign gallbladder polyps. For these patients whose gallbladder is removed due to benign gallbladder polyps, we consider that we can continue to observe or retain the gallbladder, without having to bear the adverse consequences that may be caused by gallbladder removal. Based on the literature analysis at home and abroad, this paper discusses the surgical treatment of gallbladder polyps and the results of postoperative pathological diagnosis, and reminds the majority of clinicians to be careful when removing gallbladder polyps.
