Liver23
  • The gallbladder is designed to aid in the digestion of fats by concentrating and storing the bile made in the liver and transferring it through the biliary tract to the digestive system through bile ducts that connect the liver, gallbladder, and the Sphincter of Oddi. (wikipedia.org)
  • The gallbladder is a pear-shaped organ situated on the undersurface of the liver in a fossa corresponding to segments 4 and 5 and at the lower limit of the Cantlie line (an imaginary line running from the middle of the gallbladder anteriorly to the inferior vena cava posteriorly). (medscape.com)
  • thus, a deep liver tear during the dissection of the gallbladder off its fossa can occasionally bleed profusely. (medscape.com)
  • Therefore, it is important to err on the side of the gallbladder rather than the liver parenchyma during dissection. (medscape.com)
  • The gallbladder is a small (3-inch long), hollow, pear-shaped organ located in the upper right section of the abdomen, just under the right lobe of the liver. (health.mil)

  • When you eat junk, bile produced in the liver and flowing through the biliary ducts into the gallbladder becomes too thick, the bile ducts become obstructed, gravel and stones may form (90% of all gallstones are cholesterol), and the whole biliary system may become clogged. (ericbakker.com)
  • Other causative factors include insufficient water consumption, a weak immune system (increases likelihood of infection in the gallbladder), as well as diabetes and various liver diseases. (ericbakker.com)
  • and a peritoneal covering, except where the gallbladder lies adjacent to or is embedded in the liver ( Fig. 33.1 ). (clinicalgate.com)

Symptoms21
Gallstone7
  • Further evaluation of observational studies, which measure outcomes such as obstructive jaundice, gallstone-associated pancreatitis, and/or gall-bladder cancer for sufficient duration of follow-up is necessary before randomised trials are designed in order to evaluate whether cholecystectomy or no cholecystectomy is better for asymptomatic gallstones. (laparoscopyhospital.com)

Treatment9
Cystic duct and artery1
Motility2
