Hi. Pelvicalectasis can cause sever pain in the same side of the flank. The incidental finding of gall bladder polyps needs removal of gall bladder for removing the disease and have a biopsy report too. Now a days the gall bladder (GB) is removed by Laparoscopy routinely wherein the GB is removed through 3 to 4 small incisions and you can go home by 2 nd or 3 rd day and go to work very early. You need to undergo further investigations and treatment as suggested by Surgical Urologist.
