Summary

This study looks back at the records of 2,000 adults who had liver surgery with their gallbladder left in place. Researchers want to know if a technique called the Pringle maneuver, which temporarily stops blood flow to the liver during surgery, increases the chance of developing gallbladder diseases like gallstones or inflammation later on. The goal is to help surgeons decide whether to remove the gallbladder during liver surgery.
