    Author: Landi A, Verdecchia GM, Castellini A.
    Journal: G Chir; 1993 Feb; 14(2):105-8. PubMed ID: 8489890.
    Abstract:
    The authors report their experience in the surgical management of acute cholecystitis. From 1979 to 1991, 308 patients underwent early cholecystectomy. Results obtained, accuracy of pre- and intraoperative diagnostic investigations, and surgical strategy are discussed in relation to prognostic indexes. Personal experience and literature review indicate early cholecystectomy as the treatment of choice in acute cholecystitis.
