Rephrased Query: I recently got my USG and MRCP reports, and the surgeon recommended surgery to remove my CBD and gallbladder, then connect my liver directly to the small intestine. I'm really worried is surgery absolutely necessary based on these findings? Are there any medications or other treatments that could help avoid surgery? And if surgery is the only option, what kind of long-term effects should I expect from having my CBD and gallbladder removed?
