My father age 75, while routine checkup of ultrasonograpy of abdomen , the report say Few hyperechoic polyps measuring around 2mm attached to anteior and posterior wall. And few mobile calculi measuring around 1 - 2 mms are noted in gall bladder . what does it mean? would you prescribe some treatment? No BP, hypertension , abdomen pain.
Hiwelcome to ChatDoctorthe gall bladder polyps are nothing but the outgrowths of the gall bladder tissue and calculi are gall bladder stones. Most of the polyps are benign and do not cause cancer. However large polyps with co-occuring calculi in elderly need to be evaluated for a malignant change(cancer)it is always better to consult a surgeon and take an opinion. Prevention is better than cure!take care!
