CHOLECYSTITIS The inflammation of gall bladder is called cholecystitis. Although blockage from gall bladder stones is one of the primary causes of the inflammation, tumors and infections can also cause the issue. If left untreated, it can lead to gallbladder abscess which causes pus formation in the gallbladder. When cholecystitis occurs without a stone, doctors call it acalculous gallbladder disease. 3. CHOLEDOCHOLITHIASIS Often when a gall stone or many obstruct the common bile duct, the bile begins to affect the liver. It is called choledocholithiasis. If left untreated, the problem can lead to severe complications such as inflammation of the bile duct, biliary colic, pancreatitis, etc. 4. CHOLANGITIS When there is an infection or inflammation due to an obstruction in the bile duct system, doctors call it cholangitis. It can be due to a bacterial infection. Often, patients who have gall bladder stones are at a higher risk of the complication. 5. GALL BLADDER POLYPS An abnormal growth protruding from the lining of the gall bladder is called a polyp. Although majority of gall bladder polyps are benign, a few can be cancerous. So, the doctor may recommend endoscopic ultrasound to ensure accurate diagnosis. 6.
