“…A large part of this group is likely the acalculous cholecystitis cohort, for whom PC may be definitive treatment. [9] In our study, 9% of cholecystectomies were done within the first 6 weeks after PC, but most (59%) were done between 6 and 12 weeks, which coincides with the majority of recommendations in the literature, [18][19][20][21] and 32% were done after 12 weeks. More than half of the cholecystectomies (64%) were done laparoscopically, while 34% required conversion to open, coinciding with published rates of conversion of 6-35%.…”

“…[7] It has also been postulated that cholecystostomy may serve as definitive treatment for cholecystitis, without a need for interval cholecystectomy. [8,9] The indications for cholecystostomy and for interval cholecystectomy are important clinical questions as the extent of biliary disease is increasing. Gallstones affect 10-15% of the adult population, meaning 20-25 million Americans have gallstones, and this number will only continue to rise with the increase in obesity and metabolic syndrome.…”

“…22 Improved outcomes have been shown with delayed cholecystectomy following percutaneous draining in this highrisk cohort. 23 The resolution of the acute episode of cholecystitis after PC tube placement may itself be followed by complications, including a 1-year cholecystitis recurrence rate of up to 35% and 30-day overall mortality rate of up to 15.4%. 24,25 In most studies published after 1995, the overall mortality rate was 13.3%.…”

“…Some patients underwent LC or conventional cholecystectomy as per the surgeon's preferences. Karakayali et al [26] stated that the rate of conversion to open procedure is high in patients undergoing emergency cholecystectomy. The rates of conversion to conventional cholecystectomy in both groups in the present study are similar to those reported in literature.…”
