First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study compares placing one versus two small stents in the gallbladder to prevent repeat symptoms like pain and infection in people who cannot have their gallbladder removed. About 30 adults will be randomly assigned to get one or two stents during an endoscopic procedure. Researchers will track who has fewer gallbladder attacks over six months.
