Early vs. interval approach to laparoscopic cholecystectomy for acute cholecystitis: a retrospective observational study from Pakistan
BackgroundLaparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) is the preferred treatment for acute cholecystitis (AC). However, the optimal timing for LC in AC management remains uncertain, with early cholecystectomy (EC) and interval cholecystectomy (IC) being two common approaches influenced by various factors.MethodsThis retrospective study, conducted at a tertiary care teaching hospital in Karachi, Pakistan, aimed to compare the outcomes of EC vs. IC for AC management. Patient data from January 2019 to September 2019 were analyzed with a focus on operative complications, duration of surgery, and postoperative hospital stay. The inclusion criteria were based on the Tokyo Guidelines, and patients underwent LC within 3 days of symptom onset in the EC group and after 6 weeks in the IC group.ResultsAmong 147 eligible patients, 100 underwent LC (50 in each group). No significant differences were observed in the sex distribution or mean age between the two groups. The EC group experienced fewer operative complications (12%) than the IC group (34%), with statistically significant differences observed. Nevertheless, no substantial variations in operative time or postoperative hospital stay were observed between the groups.ConclusionReduced complications in the EC group underscore its safety and efficacy. Nonetheless, further validation through multicenter studies is essential to substantiate these findings.
期刊介绍:
Evidence of surgical interventions go back to prehistoric times. Since then, the field of surgery has developed into a complex array of specialties and procedures, particularly with the advent of microsurgery, lasers and minimally invasive techniques. The advanced skills now required from surgeons has led to ever increasing specialization, though these still share important fundamental principles.
Frontiers in Surgery is the umbrella journal representing the publication interests of all surgical specialties. It is divided into several “Specialty Sections” listed below. All these sections have their own Specialty Chief Editor, Editorial Board and homepage, but all articles carry the citation Frontiers in Surgery.
Frontiers in Surgery calls upon medical professionals and scientists from all surgical specialties to publish their experimental and clinical studies in this journal. By assembling all surgical specialties, which nonetheless retain their independence, under the common umbrella of Frontiers in Surgery, a powerful publication venue is created. Since there is often overlap and common ground between the different surgical specialties, assembly of all surgical disciplines into a single journal will foster a collaborative dialogue amongst the surgical community. This means that publications, which are also of interest to other surgical specialties, will reach a wider audience and have greater impact.
The aim of this multidisciplinary journal is to create a discussion and knowledge platform of advances and research findings in surgical practice today to continuously improve clinical management of patients and foster innovation in this field.
