A woman suffering from a gallstone, where removing the gallbladder may result in the loss of the fetus?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, this is a woman who says: A pregnant woman, she is now in the beginning of the fourth month, and she has a gallstone in her gallbladder,

Answer:
the gallbladder, yes. And she has severe pain, and the doctors said that removing the gallbladder is necessary, and during the operation there is a fifty percent chance that the fetus will be lost. The question is: Is it permissible for her to undergo this operation? Knowing that she cannot bear this pain until the end of her pregnancy? The medical committee for issuing fatwas will submit a report, if Allah wills, in the morning; they will look into it. If the woman is in dire necessity, she should obtain a report from the medical committee and present it, and if Allah wills, it will be for the best. Yes.
