Hello,
Surgical removal of the gallbladder (cholecystectomy) will be the treatment of choice for symptomatic patients and we can not save the gallbladder with surgery.
However, if you are asymptomatic and there is no need to go for surgery and simply follow up will be enough.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
