Acute cholecystitis in high surgical risk patients: percutaneous cholecystostomy or emergency cholecystectomy?
چکیده انگلیسی

BackgroundPercutaneous cholecystostomy (PC) is an alternative treatment in acute cholecystitis (AC) in high-risk or elderly patients although its advantage over emergency cholecystectomy has not yet been established.Study DesignAC prospective database analysis in high-risk patients treated by PC (group 1, 29 patients) or emergency cholecystectomy (group 2, 32 patients). Surgical risk was estimated by physiological POSSUM, Charlson, Apache II, and American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) scores.ResultsThe groups showed homogeneity concerning age and surgical risk. PC allowed AC resolution in 19 patients (70.4%), but 8 (29.6%) needed emergency cholecystectomy. Morbidity and mortality rates were 31% and 17.2%, respectively. Mortality was significantly associated with ASA IV (P = .01). In group 2, the morbidity rate was 28.1% without mortality. There was no statistical difference in morbidity (P = .6) although mortality was significantly higher in group 1 (P = .02).ConclusionsPC seems of little benefit and ought to be left for those very old patients with surgical contraindication.
