Cystic duct stone can not be removed by any method except along with the gall bladder. Also if there is stone inside, there is no benefit of saving the gall bladder, because the gall bladder has become diseased and will keep on forming stones and complications are highly likely.

avoid OILY foods including milk derivatives to avoid precipitation of pain or serious complications.
