Hi, any history of stroke puts him in high risk patient category. But he will definitely require a detailed work up before surgery.
Next Steps
please meet the anaesthesiologist atleast 2 days prior to surgery, take all previous records and follow his/her orders

Hello! He can undergo laparoscopic gallbladder removal if he is experiencing any symptoms of abdominal pain, bloating and vomiting. Ultrasound report is needed to look for size of gallbladder stones or any features of infection. The risks included are bleeding which will be taken care by stopping ecosprin AV prior to surgery and it can be continued post surgery. Pls consult nearby surgeon with recent reports.
