You were referred for an ultrasound of the peritoneum? For many, after this, an entry appears in the card "an inflection in the neck of the gallbladder." Basically, it is stable (when there are congenital changes or adhesions) and functional (if the position of the body changes, it will disappear). This phenomenon is often not capable of causing any complications. But in very rare cases, there is stagnation of bile, the formation of stones and cholecystitis as a result of the fact that there is an inflection of the gallbladder. Symptoms - pain in the right hypochondrium, disruption of the intestines and metabolism. Skin becomes yellowish.
How it happens
The usual form for the gallbladder is pear-shaped. It can be conditionally divided into the neck, body and bottom. On the borders of these places, as a rule, an inflection of the gallbladder occurs. Symptoms may or may not occur. It also happens that the gallbladder is bent in several places. In this case, it can take on various forms, resembling an hourglass, a boomerang, the Latin letter "S" and so on. If we are talking about a congenital inflection, then this is just a feature of the structure of the organ, so no pain is observed.
During ultrasound, an excess of the gallbladder is detected (symptoms are usually absent), which occurs as a result of pericholecystitis, after a long course of acute or chronic cholecystitis, as well as the formation of stones in the bladder. When the inflammatory process passes to the outer wall of this organ, it is deformed by the resulting adhesions.
Often the cause of this disorder is a chronic form of cholecystitis. If you have an inflection of the gallbladder, treatment, diet and regimen will not interfere with you. Make an appointment with a specialist gastroenterologist. If we talk about nutrition, it is better to eat often and in small portions. Eliminate foods that irritate the liver and gallbladder from the diet. These are fatty, spicy, spicy foods, as well as mushrooms.
Treat or not?
This problem can lead to dysfunction of the gallbladder, which in turn entails a change in the quantitative and qualitative composition of bile and indigestion. This suggests that the acquired inflection needs treatment.
In many people, when lifting heavy objects, as well as with sudden movements, an incomplete short-term twisting of the bubble along the longitudinal axis may be observed. This phenomenon passes without a trace and without any discomfort. A similar condition can occur in an elderly person in the presence of a pronounced prolapse of the internal organs,as well as with elongation of the neck and sagging of the bladder. The presence of stones inside it also contributes to this.
It is also worth mentioning a rare case when the gallbladder kinks (there are also no symptoms) with twisting around its own axis, and more than once. When this happens, blood circulation in the wall of the organ is disturbed, which entails its necrosis. If it comes to this, then the patient feels a sharp pain in the right hypochondrium, sweating, weakness. There is bloating and vomiting as bile begins to enter the abdomen.
