Gallbladder polyps are precancerous lesions that increase the risk of gallbladder cancer, but gallbladder polyps are not a terrible disease because they grow very slowly. For polyps less than one centimeter, follow-up observation is mainly required; for polyps more than one centimeter, especially those with malignant tendency, surgery is required in time. Gallbladder polyp is a precancerous lesion, it can increase the risk of gallbladder cancer, but gallbladder polyp is not a terrible disease, because gallbladder polyp growth is a very slow process. For gallbladder polyp within one centimeter, mainly follow-up observation, dynamic monitoring of its changes, generally in order to protect the function of the gallbladder, do not do cholecystectomy. But for more than one centimeter of polyps, especially dynamic monitoring of gallbladder polyps with malignant tendency, must be early prevention, because the malignant degree of gallbladder cancer is very high, the prognosis is very poor, easy to metastasize early. So how to treat gallbladder polyps? According to its size and shape, if it is a polyp of one centimeter or even less than five millimeters, it is a flat polyp shape, the gallbladder echo is relatively high, and the malignancy is relatively low. At this time, we will dynamically follow up. However, for a polyp close to one centimeter, the malignancy is relatively high, and the gallbladder echo can be seen relatively low. At this time, surgery should be performed in time.
