Introducción: Las complicaciones de la litiasis biliar (LB) son una causa importante de morbilidad en nuestro país y en el mundo entero y generan elevados costos en salud. Objetivo: El objetivo de este trabajo fue determinar, que pacientes con una complicación de su patología litiásica de la vía biliar (colecistitis, colangitis aguda, pancreatitis aguda), fueron previamente asintomáticos, resultando dicha complicación el debut de la enfermedad. Lugar: Sanatorio Asociación Española de Socorros Mutuos, Montevideo Uruguay. Diseño: Estudio observacional descriptivo, retrospectivo, análisis de historias clínicas. Materiales y Métodos: Se analizaron 234 casos clínicos. Se constató en este grupo de pacientes, características epidemiológicas, metodología diagnóstica, tratamientos recibidos y complicaciones. Resultados: Del total de pacientes (n=234), 109 (46.6%) tenían una litiasis vesicular asintomática (LVA) y la complicación biliar, fue el debut de su enfermedad. La colecistitis aguda fue la complicación más frecuente (68%), en segundo lugar, la colangitis aguda (22%) y en tercer lugar la pancreatitis aguda (10%). La edad promedio de presentación de la enfermedad fue los 59 años. Conclusiones: Casi la mitad de los pacientes (46.6%) que presentaron una complicación de su litiasis biliar eran asintomáticos. Este sería un argumento importante para indicar la colecistectomía laparoscópica con un criterio profiláctico en pacientes con una LVA.
Introduction : Complications of gallstones are an important cause of morbidity in our country and throughout the world and generate high health costs. Objective: The objective of this study was to determine which patients with a complication of their bile duct stone pathology (cholecystitis, acute cholangitis, acute pancreatitis) were previously asymptomatic, and this complication resulted in the onset of the disease. Place: Sanatorium Asociación Española de Socorros Mutuos, Montevideo Uruguay. Design: Descriptive and retrospective observational study with an analysis of medical records. Materials and Methods: 234 clinical cases were analyzed. Epidemiological characteristics, diagnostic methodology, treatments received, and complications were assessed in this group of patients. Results: Of the total number of patients (n=234), 109 (46.6%) had an asymptomatic gallbladder lithiasis and the biliary complication was the debut of their disease. Acute cholecystitis was the most frequent complication (68%), followed by acute cholangitis (22%) and third by acute pancreatitis (10%). The average age of presentation of the disease was 59 years. Conclusions: Almost half of the patients (46.6%) who presented a complication of their gallstones were asymptomatic. This would be an important argument to indicate laparoscopic cholecystectomy with a prophylactic criterion in patients with asymptomatic gallbladder lithiasis.

La colecistitis aguda es la inflamación aguda de la vesícula biliar, originada por la obstrucción de la salida de la bilis causada generalmente por cálculos (litos). Se ha estimado que la incidencia de esta entidad en niños se encuentra entre el 0,15 y el 0,22 por ciento, con un importante aumento en la pubertad. La colecistitis aguda es la complicación más frecuente de la litiasis vesicular y registra en 6-22 por ciento de los pacientes sintomáticos con una media de aparición entre los siete y once años de seguimiento. Por la importancia de las manifestaciones clínicas en la conducta diagnóstica y terapéutica se dividen en grado I (leve), grado II (moderada), grado III (severa). El diagnóstico se lleva a cabo teniendo en cuenta el antecedente de litiasis, el cólico biliar persistente, los vómitos y la fiebre, son los elementos clínicos más constantes. El ultrasonido abdominal es el estudio de imagen más utilizado para corroborar el diagnóstico. Los pilares más importantes son la antibioticoterapia de amplio espectro, el tratamiento del dolor y los síntomas acompañantes, así como la actitud quirúrgica. Esta puede ir desde una colecistostomía en los casos graves o la colecistectomía convencional o videolaparoscópica según los recursos de la institución y la experiencia del equipo tratante. Entre las complicaciones encontramos el empiema vesicular, gangrena vesicular, perforación vesicular, plastrón vesicular, absceso subfrénico, pancreatitis aguda, íleo biliar, fístula biliar externa, fístula biliar interna, síndrome de Mirizzi colangitis obstructiva aguda supurada(AU)
Acute cholecystitis is the acute inflammation of the gall bladder caused by the obstruction of the bile output usually caused by gallstones (lytos). It has been estimated that the incidence of this entity in children is between 0.15 and 0.22 percent, with a significant increase in puberty. Acute cholecystitis is the most common complication of cholelithiasis and it is present in the 6 to 22 percent of the symptomatic patients with an average onset between the seven to eleven years of follow-up. Due to the importance of clinical manifestations in the diagnostic and therapeutic behaviour, they are divided into grade I (mild), grade II (moderate), grade III (severe). The diagnosis is carried out taking into account the history of lithiasis, and persistent biliary colic, vomiting and fever are the most constant clinical elements. Abdominal ultrasound is the most widely used imaging study to corroborate the diagnosis. The most important pillars are the broad-spectrum antibiotic therapy, the treatment of pain and the accompanying symptoms as well as the surgical approach. This last can go from a cholecystectomy in severe cases or conventional video-assisted laparoscopic cholecystectomy depending on the institution's resources and the experience of the medical staff. Between the complications, we can find vesicular empyema, vesicular gangrene, vesicular perforation, vesicular plastron, subphrenic abscess, acute pancreatitis, ileus gallstone, external biliary fistula, internal biliary fistula, Mirizzi syndrome, and obstructive acute suppurative cholangitis(AU)

SUMMARY OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the incidence, mortality and cost of non-traumatic abdominal emergencies treated in Brazilian emergency departments. METHODS: This paper used DataSus information from 2008 to 2016 (http://www.tabnet.datasus.gov.br). The number of hospitalizations, costs - AIH length of stay and mortality rates were described in acute appendicitis, acute cholecystitis, acute pancreatitis, acute diverticulitis, gastric and duodenal ulcer, and inflammatory intestinal disease. RESULTS: The disease that had the highest growth in hospitalization was diverticular bowel disease with an increase of 68.2%. For the period of nine years, there were no significant changes in the average length of hospital stay, with the highest increase in gastric and duodenal ulcer with a growth of 15.9%. The mortality rate of gastric and duodenal ulcer disease increased by 95.63%, which is significantly high when compared to the other diseases. All had their costs increased but the one that proportionally had the highest increase in the last nine years was the duodenal and gastric ulcer, with an increase of 85.4%. CONCLUSION: Non-traumatic abdominal emergencies are extremely prevalent. Hence, the importance of having updated and comparative data on the mortality rate, number of hospitalization and cost generated by these diseases to provide better healthcare services in public hospitals.
RESUMO OBJETIVO: Avaliar a evolução da Incidência, mortalidade e custo das urgências abdominais não traumáticas atendidas nos serviços de emergência do Brasil durante o período de nove anos. MÉTODOS: Este trabalho utilizou informações do DataSus de 2008 a 2016, (http://www.tabnet.datasus.gov.br). Foram analisados número de internações, valor médio das internações (AIH), valor total das internações, dias de permanência hospitalar e taxa de mortalidade das seguintes doenças: apendicite aguda, colecistite aguda, pancreatite aguda, diverticulite aguda, úlcera gástrica e duodenal, e doença inflamatória intestinal. RESULTADOS: A doença que teve o maior crescimento do número de internações foi a doença diverticular do intestino, com o valor de 68,2%. Ao longo dos nove anos não houve grandes variações da média de permanência hospitalar, sendo que o maior aumento foi o da úlcera gástrica e duodenal, com crescimento de 15,9%. A taxa de mortalidade da doença por úlcera gástrica e duodenal teve um aumento de 95,63%, consideravelmente significante quando comparada com as outras doenças. Todas tiveram seus valores de AIH aumentados, porém, a que proporcionalmente teve o maior aumento nos últimos nove anos foi a úlcera gástrica e duodenal, com um acréscimo de 85,4%. CONCLUSÃO: As urgências abdominais de origem não traumática são de extrema prevalência, por isso a importância em ter dados atualizados e comparativos sobre a taxa de mortalidade, o número de internações e os custos gerados por essas doenças, para melhor planejamento dos serviços públicos de saúde.

Introducción: La colecistitis aguda gangrenosa (CAG) es una complicación severa de la colecistitis aguda, afectando entre el 2 y 20% de las mismas. En la actualidad no hay disponibles guías definidas para detectar estos casos y definir su conducta quirúrgica con rapidez. El objetivo de este trabajo es contribuir al estudio de los factores predictivos de la CAG para identificar los pacientes que requieren cirugía de urgencia. Material y métodos: Se realizó una búsqueda retrospectiva de pacientes que fueron sometidos a colecistectomía con diagnóstico preoperatorio de colecistitis aguda en el Nuevo Hospital San Roque, entre enero de 2011 y diciembre de 2012. El Nuevo Hospital San Roque es un centro público de atención de tercer nivel al que acceden de forma gratuita los habitantes de la Ciudad de Córdoba (Argentina) y alrededores que no cuentan con cobertura de salud privada. Los factores de riesgo preoperatorios evaluados incluyeron sexo, edad, diabetes, obesidad, vómitos, fiebre, recuento de glóbulos blancos, eritrosedimentación, enzimas hepáticas, amilasa y hallazgos ecográficos como diámetro de la pared vesicular y líquido perivesicular. Los pacientes fueron divididos en 2 grupos de acuerdo con el diagnóstico anatomopatológico: el grupo 1 incluyó pacientes con CAG y el grupo 2, pacientes con colecistitis aguda no gangrenosa. Resultados: De un total de 183 pacientes sometidos a colecistectomía, 101 (55,1%) presentaron CAG. El análisis multivariado determinó que en nuestro grupo de estudio la razón de probabilidades de CAG asociadas a las variables fiebre, diabetes, y sexo masculino son mayores de 2 y estadísticamente significativas. Asimismo, la razón de probabilidades de CAG aumenta con el nivel de glóbulos blancos y eritrosedimentación. Conclusión: Las variables fiebre, diabetes, sexo masculino, glóbulos blancos, y eritrosedimentación pueden ser consideradas factores predictivos independientes en nuestro caso de estudio.
Introduction: Acute gangrenous cholecystitis (AGC) is a severe complication of acute cholecystitis affecting between 2 and 20% of them. To date, there are no defined guidelines available to triage high-risk surgical patients. Our objective is to contribute to the literature studying predictive factors of AGC aimed at identifying patients who require emergency surgery. Materials and methods: We conducted a retrospective search of patients who underwent cholecystectomies with preoperative diagnosis of acute cholecystitis at Nuevo Hospital San Roque between January 2011 and December 2012. Nuevo Hospital San Roque is a public hospital in Argentina that provides health services to non-privately insured residents of the Cordoba metropolitan area. The resulting sample was used to perform a multivariate analysis encompassing the following preoperative risk factors: gender, age, diabetes, obesity, vomiting, fever, white blood cell count, erythrocyte sedimentation rate, liver enzymes, amylase and sonographic findings like diameter of gallbladder wall and perivesicular liquid. Patients were divided into two groups according to pathological diagnosis: group 1 included patients with acute AGC and group 2 with no gangrenous acute cholecystitis. Results: One hundred and one patients presented AGC out of a total of 183 patients analyzed. Our multivariate analysis determined that the odds ratio of CAG associated with the variables fever, diabetes, and male gender are greater than 2 and statistically significant. Likewise, the odds ratio of CAG is increasing in the level of white blood cells and in the erythrocyte sedimentation rate. Conclusion: We found that fever, diabetes, male gender, white blood cells, and erythrocyte sedimentation rate can be considered independent predictors in our sample.

To study narcotic drug abuse, particularly opiate addiction, and other risk factors in patients with acute cholecystitis. In this prospective cross sectional study, variables such as age, gender, weight, narcotics drug abuse, hormone taking, number of pregnancies, and coexistent diseases were recorded in pre-designed forms for 100 consecutive patients who underwent operation for acute cholecystitis between October 2001 and June 2005 in Imam Reza Hospital, Birjand, Iran. Relevant statistical tests were applied, using SPSS version 13.0. From the studied patients 62 females, 38 males with a mean +/- SD of 60.8 +/- 15.9 years, 66 were underweight, 23 were overweight, and only 11 patients had normal weight. Most of the patients 76 had calculous cholecystitis, of which 50 65.8% were female, and 26 34.2%, were male. Seven females 11%, and 14 males 37% revealed jaundice p<0.002. Most 72% had a history of narcotics abuse, of which 69 95.8% abused opiates constantly, and 3 4.2% abused recreationally. A significant p<0.01 relationship was found between acute cholecystitis and opiate addiction. Opiate addiction was more common in patients from rural areas than urban p<0.03. Seventeen female patients 27.4% had a history of taking oral contraceptives. The patients were mostly from low socio-economic populations, and rural areas. The study revealed that narcotic opiate addiction is a major risk factor for occurrence of acute cholecystitis in this area
