Gallbladder

Definition:The gallbladder is a small organ that stores bile produced by the liver.

The gallbladder is a small, pear-shaped pouch located beneath the liver. It plays a key role in the digestive system by storing bile, a digestive fluid made by the liver that helps break down fats. When you eat, the gallbladder releases bile into the small intestine to assist in digestion.
