My mother had a Hysterectomy with Colostomy surgery on 01Jul25. While performing hysterectomy the doctor mentioned that her intestines are fragile and breaks while touching with hands hence they have performed colostomy. Now after 1.5 months they have planned to remove the colostomy procedure and normalise the fecal route. There was no reason provided by the doctor of intestine being very fragile. After 17 days she is doing better and there are no complications however I wanted to know if there is any risk involved during her next surgery? What other complications can be occurred during that surgery? Should we go with any other test before the surgery?

My mother, 60 years old, has been experiencing acidity, vomiting, and stomach pain. The doctor advised USG and MRCP, which revealed cholelithiasis and a dilated CBD measuring 7 mm. Her SGPT, SGOT, and GGTP levels are elevated, but lipase and amylase are normal. We are a bit confused as some doctors suggest placing a stent in the CBD first, followed by gallbladder removal surgery, while others recommend proceeding directly with gallbladder removal. Could you please advise if stent placement is truly necessary in this case, or can we go directly for gallbladder removal surgery? Reports are attached for your reference.
