Why Open Gallbladder Removal Is Done. A surgeon will remove your gallbladder if gallstones cause pain and other complications. Gallstones are hard deposits of substances in the bile that get stuck inside the gallbladder. They range in size from grains of sand to golf balls.
In open gallbladder surgery (cholecystectomy), the surgeon removes the gallbladder through a single, large cut (incision) in the abdomen. You will need general anesthesia, and the surgery lasts 1 to 2 hours. The surgeon will make the incision either under the border of the right rib cage or in the middle of the upper part of the abdomen (between the belly button and the end of the breastbone).
