The management of a gallbladder polyp depends on several factors. Its size, shape and general structure of the follicle itself or the coexistence of gallstone disease are of fundamental importance. Additionally, the presence of clinical symptoms is taken into account. When the polyp has been found during routine control ultrasound examination, it is smaller than 1 cm and is not accompanied by urolithiasis or any symptoms, it is most often recommended to observe the patient with periodic follow-up ultrasound examination.
