This study aimed to investigate whether ursodeoxycholic acid could be an effective alternative treatment for gallstone dissolution, potentially offering a nonsurgical option for patients requiring gallstone removal.<\/jats:p>\n          <\/jats:sec>\n          <jats:sec>\n            <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n            <jats:p>This retrospective study analyzed 88 patients who underwent LSG and subsequently developed gallstones between 2017 and 2023. Fifty-one patients who received UDCA treatment were compared to 37 patients who did not receive UDCA. Demographic and clinical characteristics and gallstone dissolution rates were analyzed using SPSS v25.0.<\/jats:p>\n          <\/jats:sec>\n          <jats:sec>\n            <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n            <jats:p>Gallstones dissolved in 60% of patients who received UDCA treatment, and symptoms such as dyspepsia decreased. A stone diameter of less than 5\u00a0mm was associated with a higher treatment success rate. The number of hospitalizations and admissions due to gallstone symptoms has decreased. The side effects were mild and did not require treatment discontinuation.<\/jats:p>\n          <\/jats:sec>\n          <jats:sec>\n            <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n            <jats:p>UDCA treatment is an effective option for the resolution of gallstones after LSG. However, surgery may be more appropriate for treating larger stones.
