Gallstones (cholelithiasis) can cause severe biliary colic pain, fever, jaundice, or pancreatitis if they block the common bile duct. Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy is a minimally invasive surgical procedure to remove the gallbladder through 3-4 tiny keyhole incisions, ensuring minimal pain and rapid recovery.
Why Choose Laparoscopy?
- Minimal Pain: Discharged in 24 hours.
- Rapid Mobilization: Return to office work in 5 to 7 days.
- Low Infection Risk: Small incisions prevent hernia risks.
Cost Comparison: Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy (USD)
| Country | Average Cost (USD) | Recovery Period |

| India (Delhi-NCR) | $2,200 – $3,200 | 5 – 7 Days |
