[Management of acute cholecystitis].
Revue medicale suisse(2023)
Abstract
Acute cholecystitis is an inflammation of the gallbladder most often related to gallstones. The diagnostic and severity criteria are well described by the Tokyo criteria. Early laparoscopic cholecystectomy remains the treatment of choice. It can also be performed in elderly patients and in pregnant women during any trimester. For patients not eligible for surgery, percutaneous or echo-endoscopic gallbladder drainage (EUS-GBD) are effective treatment alternatives. The management of acute cholecystitis must therefore be adapted to each patient by carefully evaluating the risks and benefits associated with surgery.
