  • Title: [Results of treatment of acute cholecystitis following conservative therapy, interval operation and early operation].
    Author: Kubo G, Mann H, Nicko HJ.
    Journal: Zentralbl Chir; 1985; 110(17):1054-65. PubMed ID: 3904272.
    Abstract:
    The results achieved by conservative treatment interval operation and early operation in 981 patients suffering from acute cholecystitis were compared in a retrospective study by means of electronic data processing (EDP). There is no difference in length of operating time, intra- and postoperative complications and mortality rate between operation at an interval and early operation. By introducing the early operation the total mortality rate of all patients suffering from acute cholecystitis decreased from 7% to an average of 2.5%.
