Gallstones, artwork C016 / 2860
Gallstones. Artwork showing the gallbladder (yellow) and surrounding organs in a woman with gallstones. The gallbladder stores bile, the digestive fluid that is produced by the liver (above gallbladder) and passed to the small intestine. Also shown here is the pancreas (right of gallbladder). Gallstones, hard deposits formed of cholesterol and bile salts, form in the gallbladder when there is an imbalance in the chemical composition of the bile. Gallstones are usually symptomless, unless one obstructs the bile duct, causing acute pain, jaundice and infection. Treatment is with drugs to dissolve the stones or surgical removal of the gallbladder

EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Gallstones, artwork C016 / 2860" offers a detailed illustration of the intricate network of organs involved in gallstone formation within a woman's body. The focal point is the gallbladder, depicted in vibrant yellow hues, which serves as a reservoir for bile – the vital digestive fluid produced by the liver situated above it. Adjacent to the gallbladder lies the pancreas on its right side. The image showcases how gallstones, composed of cholesterol and bile salts, develop when there is an imbalance in the chemical composition of bile. Typically asymptomatic, these hardened deposits can cause excruciating pain and complications if they obstruct the bile ducts. This obstruction may lead to jaundice and infection. In terms of treatment options for this condition known as cholelithiasis or gallstone disease, medical professionals employ two main approaches: medication aimed at dissolving stones or surgical removal of the entire gallbladder itself. This visually stunning artwork not only provides valuable insight into this common disorder but also highlights various components of our digestive system such as bones, intestines, and other surrounding organs. Its meticulous detailing allows viewers to appreciate both the complexity and fragility inherent in our abdominal cavity. Authored by Springer Medizin/Science Photo Library (not affiliated with any commercial entity), this print serves as an invaluable resource for medical professionals studying hepatology or anyone seeking a deeper understanding of human anatomy and gastrointestinal disorders.
