Gallbladder polyps: diagnosis and treatment tactics (literature review)

Abstract

Gallbladder polyps are an elevation of the mucous membrane that protrudes into the lumen of the gallbladder cavity. Pathology, according to world literature, occurs with a frequency of 0.3% to 13.8%. Currently, the diagnosis of polypoid formations of the gallbladder is based on the routine use of ultrasound, without further clarifying research, which often leads to errors in treatment tactics. In the domestic literature, there are very few studies on this topic, despite the relevance of this area.
