Abstract
To estimate the proportions of people aged 50 years or more with mild gallstone pancreatitis who undergo index cholecystectomy (during their initial hospital admission) or interval cholecystectomy (during a subsequent admission); to compare outcomes following index and interval cholecystectomy; and to identify factors associated with undergoing interval cholecystectomy.
