In recent years, there has been an unceasing increase in the number of patients with acute cholecystitis, including those with a complicated course of the disease against the background of concomitant pathology. The aim of the study was to establish the level of comorbidity and its influence on the level of postoperative complications in patients with acute cholecystitis who underwent laparoscopic cholecystectomy. We included 457 patients with acute cholecystitis with accompanying pathology, averaging 64.5±9.74 years. Operative intervention was carried out laparoscopically. Patients who scored 4–3 points were considered favorable, and those who scored 0–2 were considered unfavorable. The assessment of comorbidity was carried out using a special index – the Charlson comorbidity index. The majority of patients had a comorbidity index at 2 points (28.0% of all examined patients), indicating the presence of concomitant pathology in the vast majority of patients. We found that the Charleston comorbidity index increased with age, which indicates a higher frequency of concomitant diseases in older patients. A reliable correlation of medium strength was established (R=0.68; p<0.05) between the age and comorbidity indexes. When predicting the mortality of an experimental cohort of patients with acute cholecystitis who underwent laparoscopic cholecystectomy, it can be predicted that the level of the Charlson comorbidity index correlates with the age of patients while the level of postoperative complications increases.
