My mother is having pus secretion from gallbladder bed after gallstone removal. What is the reason?

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

Sorry to hear about your mother's complaints. Pus from the surgical site is worrisome. It may just be a surgical site infection, usually superficial and confined to the skin and it usually subsides with appropriate antibiotics. But since you have mentioned that the pus is from gallbladder bed, which means it is from an intraabdominal source, then it is a matter of grave concern and needs further evaluation both clinical and radiological along with biochemical parameters.

Is she having a fever? Was the drain placed after the surgery? Did the operating surgeon mention anything like empyema of the gall bladder or a mucocele? These are some more questions which need answering for more accurate knowhow about the cause of your mother's condition. Sit with your operating surgeon and have a clear discussion about it. He or She would be the best person to help you out.
