ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
In elderly patients with calculous acute cholecystitis, the risk of emergency surgery is high, and percutaneous cholecystostomy tube drainage (PC) combined with delayed laparoscopic cholecystectomy (DLC) may be a good choice. We retrospectively compared laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) to DLC after PC to determine which is the better treatment strategy.METHOD:
We performed a retrospective cohort analysis of 752 patients with acute calculous cholecystitis. Patients with the following conditions were included (1) age > 65 years old; (2) patients with a grade 2 or 3 severity of cholecystitis according to the 2013 Tokyo Guidelines (TG13); (3) the surgeons who performed the LC were professors or associate professors and (4) the DLC was performed in our hospital after PC. Patients who missed their 30-day follow-up; were diagnosed with bile duct stones, cholangitis or gallstone pancreatitis or were pregnant were excluded from the study. A total of 51 of 314 patients who underwent LC and 73 of 438 patients who underwent PC + DLC were assessed. PC + DLC and LC patients were matched by cholecystitis severity grade according to the TG13, and the National Surgical Quality Improvement Program (NSQIP) calculator was used to predict mortality (n = 21/group). Preoperative characteristics and postoperative outcomes were analysed.RESULTS:
Compared to the matched LC group, the DLC group had less intraoperative bleeding (42.2 vs 75.3 mL, p = 0.014), shorter hospital stays (4.9 vs 7.4 days, p = 0.010) and lower rates of type A bile duct injury (4.8% vs 14.3%, p = 0.035) and type D (0 vs 9.5%, p = 0.002) according to Strasberg classification, residual stones (4.8 vs 14.3%, p = 0.035) and gastrointestinal organ injury (0 vs 3.6%, p < 0.001). Patients in the DLC group had lower incidences of ICU admission and death and a significantly lower incidence of repeat surgery.CONCLUSION:
In elderly patients treated for acute calculous cholecystitis, the 30-day mortality and complication rates were lower for PC + DLC than for LC. However, the total hospitalisation time was significantly prolonged and the costs were significantly higher for PC + DLC.Palavras-chave
