Gall bladder polyp
Hello sir/ma'am,
15*8 mm gall bladder polyp size ...
Is this gall bladder polyp size less than 1 cm? Or more than 1 cm?
Kindly help me with this.

It is bigger than 1 cm. Get your gallbladder surgically removed (laparoscopic cholecystectomy) for your safety. Gallbladder will then be sent for histo-pathology exam where diagnosis can be confirmed if the polyp is cancerous or non cancerous.
Next Steps
Laparoscopic cholecystectomy
