It will be better if you could post the USG report so that it will be clear as to what the echogenic lesion is exactly. It most probably might be a calculus i.e a stone in the gall bladder. But why the report says extending into the gall bladder. I personally feel that if it is such a large stone then even if it is asymptomatic at present you should still go ahead with surgery as the complications related to it although less likely are very serious.
