After evaluations, she was taken into surgery by General Surgery Specialist Dr.
Mehmet Ali Yücesoy, who removed her gallbladder. MORE THAN 3,000 STONES REMOVED FROM GALLBLADDER During the successfully completed operation, a remarkable finding was made. Doctors identified over 3,000 gallstones accumulated over time in Gürkan's gallbladder, a number counted with the help of artificial intelligence. The gallbladder and the stones inside were removed during the surgery.
'SEEING THOUSANDS OF STONES SURPRISED US TOO' General Surgery Specialist Dr. Mehmet Ali Yücesoy stated that the patient had come with complaints of stones falling into the bile duct and that they did not expect such a high number of stones during the initial examinations. Yücesoy said, "Our first ultrasound showed a stone of 3 centimeters. We did not expect so many stones, but opening the gallbladder and seeing thousands of stones surprised us as well.
We are discharging our patient in good health." He noted that the stones removed from the gallbladder were cholesterol and pigment stones and emphasized that people with similar complaints should consult a general surgery or internal medicine specialist without delay.

I feel very good, I feel relieved."
