Abstract
Introduction Cystic artery pseudoaneurysm rupture presents a rare yet potentially fatal aetiology for upper gastrointestinal (GI) bleed. While uncommon, its incidence has been rising with increased hepatobiliary surgical interventions, predominantly attributed to iatrogenic injury and rarely secondary to acute cholecystitis. Clinical manifestations typically include epigastric pain, upper GI haemorrhage, and obstructive jaundice. Due to its rarity, it is often excluded from initial differential diagnoses. Case report This is an unusual case of a 54-year-old male who presented with acute cholecystitis complicated by haemobilia and Mirizzi-like obstruction, in the setting of cystic artery pseudoaneurysm rupture. Initially, urgent transcatheter angiographic embolization of the cystic artery was performed to achieve hemodynamic stability. However, a triphasic computed tomography (CT) scan revealed the first attempt was unsuccessful, necessitating a second embolization. Subsequent imaging confirmed satisfactory embolization; however, a small area of liver necrosis was observed adjacent to the gallbladder. The patient was stable at discharge from the hospital and had an uncomplicated interval cholecystectomy. Discussion This case highlights the complexity and challenges associated with diagnosing and managing cystic artery pseudoaneurysm rupture. Diagnosis often relies on arterial phase contrast-enhanced CT scan. While no guideline currently exist, management typically involves achieving hemodynamic stability through Transcatheter angiographic embolization, followed by interval cholecystectomy. Conclusion Early recognition and intervention are crucial in managing cystic artery pseudoaneurysm rupture to prevent life-threatening haemorrhagic shock. Clinicians need to consider this rare condition in patients with upper GI bleeding and abnormal liver function tests.

Evaluating effectiveness and safety of combined percutaneous transhepatic gallbladder drainage and laparoscopic cholecystectomy in acute cholecystitis patients: Meta-analysis. World J Gastrointest Surg 2024; 16:1407-1419. [PMID: 38817274 PMCID: PMC11135318 DOI: 10.4240/wjgs.v16.i5.1407] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/19/2024] [Revised: 02/29/2024] [Accepted: 04/02/2024] [Indexed: 05/23/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Acute cholecystitis (AC) is a common disease in general surgery. Laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) is widely recognized as the "gold standard" surgical procedure for treating AC. For low-risk patients without complications, LC is the recommended treatment plan, but there is still controversy regarding the treatment strategy for moderate AC patients, which relies more on the surgeon's experience and the medical platform of the visiting unit. Percutaneous transhepatic gallbladder puncture drainage (PTGBD) can effectively alleviate gallbladder inflammation, reduce gallbladder wall edema and adhesion around the gallbladder, and create a "time window" for elective surgery. AIM To compare the clinical efficacy and safety of LC or PTGBD combined with LC for treating AC patients, providing a theoretical basis for choosing reasonable surgical methods for AC patients. METHODS In this study, we conducted a clinical investigation regarding the combined use of PTGBD tubes for the treatment of gastric cancer patients with AC. We performed searches in the following databases: PubMed, Web of Science, EMBASE, Cochrane Library, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, and Wanfang Database. The search encompassed literature published from the inception of these databases to the present. Subsequently, relevant data were extracted, and a meta-analysis was conducted using RevMan 5.3 software. RESULTS A comprehensive analysis was conducted, encompassing 24 studies involving a total of 2564 patients. These patients were categorized into two groups: 1371 in the LC group and 1193 in the PTGBD + LC group. The outcomes of the meta-analysis revealed noteworthy disparities between the PTGBD + LC group and the LC group in multiple dimensions: (1) Operative time: Mean difference (MD) = 17.51, 95%CI: 9.53-25.49, P < 0.01; (2) Conversion to open surgery rate: Odds ratio (OR) = 2.95, 95%CI: 1.90-4.58, P < 0.01; (3) Intraoperative bleeding loss: MD = 32.27, 95%CI: 23.03-41.50, P < 0.01; (4) Postoperative hospital stay: MD = 1.44, 95%CI: 0.14-2.73, P = 0.03; (5) Overall postoperative complication rate: OR = 1.88, 95%CI: 1.45-2.43, P < 0.01; (6) Bile duct injury: OR = 2.17, 95%CI: 1.30-3.64, P = 0.003; (7) Intra-abdominal hemorrhage: OR = 2.45, 95%CI: 1.06-5.64, P = 0.004; and (8) Wound infection: OR = 0. These findings consistently favored the PTGBD + LC group over the LC group. There were no significant differences in the total duration of hospitalization [MD = -1.85, 95%CI: -4.86-1.16, P = 0.23] or bile leakage [OR = 1.33, 95%CI: 0.81-2.18, P = 0.26] between the two groups. CONCLUSION The combination of PTGBD tubes with LC for AC treatment demonstrated superior clinical efficacy and enhanced safety, suggesting its broader application value in clinical practice.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Gallbladder drainage by methods such as percutaneous transhepatic gallbladder drainage (PTGBD) or endoscopic gallbladder stenting (EGBS) is important in the early management of moderate to severe acute cholecystitis. METHODS In patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) for acute cholecystitis after a month or more of gallbladder drainage, the clinical course was compared between patients initially treated with PTGBD or EGBS. RESULTS Among 331 patients undergoing LC for cholecystitis between 2018 and 2022, 43 first underwent 1 or more months of gallbladder drainage. The median interval between drainage initiation and LC was 89 days (range, 28-261) among 34 patients with PTGBD and 70 days (range, 62-188) among nine with EGBS (p = 0.644). During this waiting period, PTGBD was clamped in six patients and removed in five. Cholecystitis relapsed in three PTGBD patients (9%) and four EGBS patients (44%; p = 0.026). Relapses were managed with medications. Cholecystectomy duration (p = 0.022), intraoperative blood loss (p = 0.026), frequency of abdominal drain insertion (p = 0.023), and resort to bailout surgery such as fundus-first approaches (p = 0.030) were significantly greater in patients with EGBS. Postoperative complications were somewhat likelier (p = 0.095) and postoperative hospital stays were longer (p = 0.007) in the EGBS group. CONCLUSION Among patients whose LC was performed 1 or more months after initiation of drainage, daily living during the waiting period associated with drainage was well supported by EGBS, but LC and the postoperative course were more complicated than in PTGBD patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Percutaneous cholecystostomy tube (PCT) drainage is an effective management strategy for acute cholecystitis in patients medically unfit for surgery. However, little is known about the fate of patients managed by PCT. We conducted this study to determine tube management outcomes for patients with acute cholecystitis managed by PCT. METHODS The electronic record was queried to identify patients with acute cholecystitis managed by PCT from 2012-2020. Patients were divided into three groups for analysis: 1) ultimately managed by cholecystectomy, 2) eventual confirmation of distal flow of bile from the gallbladder and tube removal, and 3) tubes left in place without further management. RESULTS A total of 179 patients with acute cholecystitis treated by PCT were included. Sixty-six patients never fully recovered from the medical insult associated with their diagnosis of acute cholecystitis and had their tubes left in situ. Sixty-four of these 66 patients (97%) died during follow-up. The remaining 113 patients recovered from their illness and presented to clinic for evaluation for tube removal and/or cholecystectomy. When distal biliary flow was confirmed, tube removal was favored (n = 70). When cystic duct outflow occlusion persisted, cholecystectomy was planned for patients who became acceptable surgical candidates (n = 43). For patients managed by cholecystectomy, 8 were approached open and 35 laparoscopically, with 12 of 35 (34.3%) converted to open and 23 (65.7%) completed laparoscopically. CONCLUSION Our study favors PCT removal for patients who recover from their acute illness when distal bile flow from the gallbladder is confirmed. We reserve cholecystectomy for patients who recover from their illness and demonstrate persistent cystic duct outflow obstruction.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Acute cholecystitis is one of the most common causes of acute abdomen. Early laparoscopic cholecystectomy is the gold standard treatment, still burdened by a risk of intraoperative biliary duct injury. An alternative strategy to manage patients with severe acute cholecystitis is the percutaneous gallbladder drainage (PGBD). METHODS The Italian Society of Emergency Surgery and Trauma performed a systematic review and meta-analysis with the aim to clarify controversies about the preoperative use of PGBD. We extracted 32 studies: 9 Randomized Control Trial Studies (RCTs) and 23 no RCTs. RESULTS OF CRITICAL OUTCOMES The incidence of post-operative complications was lower in the PGBD associated at LC than in the LC alone (RCTs: RR 0.28, 95% CI 0.14 to 0.56, I2 = 63%). The incidence of the post-operative biliary leakage was higher in late PGBD' group (RCTs: RR 0.18, 95% CI 0.04 to 0.80). RESULTS OF OTHER OUTCOMES The incidence of intraabdominal abscess, blood loss, conversion to open, subtotal cholecystectomy, operative time and wound infection was lower in PGBD' group. The total hospital stay was the same. CONCLUSION A strong recommendation is performed to the use of the PGBD + LC than upfront LC to reduce biliary leakage (recommendation "strong positive") in high risk acute cholecystitis especially in patients with higher perioperative risks or longstanding acute cholecystitis. For post-operative complications a recommendation "positive weak" suggests that PGBD + LC could be used than upfront LC to reduce the rate of post-operative complications.

Abstract
Background We aimed to investigate the extent to which ultrasound (US)-guided percutaneous cholecystostomy (PC) is used as a bridging or definitive therapy for grade II and III acute cholecystitis and whether this treatment causes significant changes in C-reactive protein (CRP) and direct bilirubin (DB) levels in the first 72 h and the first three weeks. Methods We included 145 consecutive patients who underwent PC over 17 years. No patient had cirrhosis. PC was performed in the interventional radiology department under US guidance. Results US-guided PC was the definitive treatment for more than half of the patients (51.7%) and decreased DB levels significantly more than CRP levels. Conclusion No statistically significant correlation between those whose CRP and DB levels normalized within three weeks and those who did not and required a second invasive procedure. Nevertheless, the bridging treatment group was significantly older than the definitive treatment group.

Comparison of the safety and effectiveness of different surgical timing for acute cholecystitis after percutaneous transhepatic gallbladder drainage: a systematic review and meta-analysis. Langenbecks Arch Surg 2023; 408:125.

Abstract
BACKGROUND To compare the efficacy and safety of laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) in the treatment of acute cholecystitis (AC) at different time points after percutaneous transhepatic gallbladder drainage (PTGBD). METHODS PubMed, EMBASE, Cochrane Library, and Web of Science were searched from database inception to 1 May 2022. The last date of search was the May 30, 2022. The Newcastle-Ottawa scale (NOS) was used to conduct quality assessments, and RevMan (Version 5.4) was used to perform the meta-analysis. RESULTS A total of 12 studies and 4379 patients were analyzed. Compared with the < 2-week group, the ≥ 2-week group had shorter operation time, less intraoperative blood loss, shorter postoperative hospital stay, lower rate of conversion to laparotomy, and fewer complications. There was no statistical difference between the two groups regarding bile duct injury, bile leakage, and total cost. CONCLUSIONS The evidence indicates that the ≥ 2-week group has the advantage in less intraoperative blood loss, minor tissue damage, quick recovery, and sound healing in treating AC. It can be seen that LC after 2 weeks is safe and effective for AC patients who have already undergone PTGBD and is recommended, but further confirmation is needed in a larger sample of randomized controlled studies.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to evaluate the safety of urgent laparoscopic cholecystectomy (Lap-C) for grade II acute cholecystitis (AC) in high-risk patients who were defined by Tokyo Guideline 18 as having age-adjusted Charlson comorbidity index ≥6 or American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status classification (ASA-PS) ≥ 3, compared with elective Lap-C following percutaneous transhepatic gallbladder drainage (PTGBD). METHODS In 73 grade II AC patients who underwent Lap-C from January 2012 to March 2021, 35 were identified as high-risk; 22 underwent urgent Lap-C (urgent group) and 13 PTGBD followed by elective Lap-C (elective group). Surgical and perioperative outcomes were analyzed. RESULTS There was no significant difference in operation time (median: 101 min vs 125 min; P = 0.371), blood loss (25 ml vs 7 ml; P = 0.853), morbidity rate (31.8% vs 38.5%; P = 0.726), or the incidence of total perioperative major complications (13.6% vs 15.4%; P = 1.000) between the two groups. The total duration of treatment was significantly shorter in the urgent group than the elective group (11 days vs 71 days; P < 0.001). Multivariate analysis revealed that blood loss ≥45 ml [odds ratio (OS): 12.14, 95% confidence interval (CI): 2.03-72.42, P = 0.006], and age ≥75 years with ASA-PS ≥ 3 (OS: 9.85, 95%CI: 1.26-77.26, P = 0.03) were the independent risk factors for total perioperative major complications. CONCLUSION In well-selected high-risk patients with grade II AC, urgent Lap-C can be performed with comparable safety to elective Lap-C following PTGBD.

Hamid M, Khalid A, Parmar J. Does percutaneous cholecystostomy timing in high anaesthetic-risk patients impact on outcome? Updates Surg 2023; 75:133-140. [PMID: 36333564 DOI: 10.1007/s13304-022-01405-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/30/2022] [Accepted: 10/05/2022] [Indexed: 11/06/2022]
Abstract
The optimal timing for percutaneous cholecystostomy (PCT) in patients with acute biliary sepsis, who are high-risk for cholecystectomy, requires further investigation. We aimed to study local factors influencing the timing to PCT placement, and investigate patient outcomes in early (≤ 48 h) vs. delayed PCT over a six-year period. A retrospective observational study investigating patients who required a PCT at a single hospital in the UK between January 2014 and December 2019. Placement of a PCT was at the discretion of the on-call surgical consultant according to their own personal experience and not based on a standard local protocol. Clinical outcomes, hospital statistics and details of any subsequent bridging surgery were analysed using multivariate logistic regression models adjusting for age, sex, Charlson Comorbidity Index (CCI) and American Society of Anaesthesiologists (ASA) grade. There were 72 patients with 35/72 (48.6%) classed as TG18 AC grade 3; 26/72 (36.1%) had an early PCT placed and 46/72 (63.9%) delayed. Median age was 76 (65-83) years, 52.8% were female, and 51.4% were classed ASA ≥ 3 with 94.0% scoring CCI > 2. Trial on antibiotic therapy was the primary reason for delayed PCT. In adjusted models, early PCT was associated with a shorter length in hospital stay (OR 3.02, p = 0.044), successful definitive treatment (OR 6.26, p = 0.009); and reduced likelihood for catheter dislodgment (OR 0.12, p = 0.004) with fewer patients bridging to later emergency open surgery (OR 0.19, p = 0.024). Clinical outcomes may be superior in urgent or early PCT for high anaesthetic-risk patients following acute biliary sepsis.

Abstract
Background: In the difficult gallbladder, the rate of bile duct injury (BDI) remains high. To lessen iatrogenic biliary injury, we attempted to utilize indocyanine green (ICG)-guided fluorescence cholangiography during surgery to illuminate the extrahepatic biliary tract. Materials and Methods: According to admission criteria, 38 patients were diagnosed with difficult gallbladder and underwent percutaneous transhepatic gallbladder drainage (PTGBD). Consecutive patients who underwent ICG-assisted laparoscopic biliary surgery (n = 18, ICG group) or conventional laparoscopic biliary surgery (n = 20, white light [WL group) were enrolled in this study. ICG group received ICG fluorescent cholangiography via PTGBD tube during operation; 16 cases of laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) and 2 cases of LC plus laparoscopic common bile duct exploration (LC+LCBDE) were performed by fluorescent laparoscopy. In the WL group, 16 cases of LC, 1 case of laparoscopic subtotal cholecystectomy (LSC), and 3 cases of LC+LCBDE were performed under white light without ICG. Result: The biliary system was successfully established in the ICG group. Compared with the WL group, the anatomy of the Calot's triangle with severe abdominal adhesion or local inflammatory edema was more clearly displayed by fluorescence. Laparoscopic surgery was completed in both groups without conversion to laparotomy. There were no significant differences in surgery-related complications (P = .232) and postoperative hospital stay (P = .074) between the two groups. However, compared with the WL group, the ICG group had less intraoperative blood loss (P = .002) and shorter operation duration (P = .006). Conclusion: ICG fluorescence cholangiography has good clinical application value in the difficult gallbladder, which can avoid iatrogenic BDI, reduce surgery-related complications and intraoperative blood loss, and shorten the duration of surgery.

Outcome of early cholecystectomy compared to percutaneous drainage of gallbladder and delayed cholecystectomy for patients with acute cholecystitis: systematic review and meta-analysis. HPB (Oxford) 2022; 24:1622-1633. [PMID: 35597717 DOI: 10.1016/j.hpb.2022.04.010] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/14/2022] [Revised: 04/03/2022] [Accepted: 04/26/2022] [Indexed: 12/12/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Compare outcomes of early laparoscopic cholecystectomy (ELC) and percutaneous trans-hepatic drainage of gallbladder (PTGBD) as an initial intervention for AC and to compare operative outcomes of ELC and delayed laparoscopic cholecystectomy (DLC). METHODS English-language studies published until December 2020 were searched. Randomised controlled trials (RCTs) and observational studies compared EC and PTGBD with delayed cholecystectomy for patients presented with acute cholecystitis were considered. Main outcomes were mortality, conversion to open, complications and length of hospital stay. RESULTS Out of 1347 records, 14 studies were included. 205,361 (94.7%) patients had EC and 11,565 (5.3%) patients had PTGBD as an initial intervention for AC. Mortality was higher in PTGBD; HR, 95% CI: [3.68 (2.13, 6.38)]. In contrast, complication rate was significantly higher in EC group (47%) vs PTGBD group (8.7%) in patients admitted to ICU; P-value = 0.011. Patients who had ELC were at higher risk of post-operative complications compared to DLC; RR [95% CI]: 2.88 [1.78, 4.65]. Risk of bile duct injury was six folds more in ELC; RR [95% CI]: 6.07 [1.67, 21.99]. CONCLUSION ELC may be a preferred treatment option over PTGBD in AC. However, patient and disease specific factors should be considered to avoid unfavourable outcomes with ELC.

Abstract
BACKGROUND High risk surgical patients with acute cholecystitis are commonly treated with percutaneous cholecystostomy (PTC) drainage. The optimal timing of subsequent interval laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) remains unclear. METHODS Medline, EMBASE, and Scopus were searched to identify studies published between 01/01/2000 and 31/12/2020, reporting on interval LC outcomes in patients initially treated by PTC. Early and late interval LC were defined as <30 and ≥ 30 days respectively. The Methodological Index for Nonrandomized Studies was used for quality assessment. Meta-analysis of proportions was conducted using a random-effects model. RESULTS A total of 512 studies were screened, 41 met the inclusion criteria. There were 22 studies in both early and late interval LC groups, with 3 included studies reporting both early and late groups. Following quality assessment, 29 studies were included in the meta-analysis. There were no significant differences between early and late interval LC in terms of conversion rates (7.2% vs 8.3%, p = 0.854), 90-day morbidity (12.8% vs 15.9%, p = 0.496), and 90-day mortality (0.25% vs 0.32%, p = 0.704). Heterogeneity was significant (I2>50%) in all groups. CONCLUSION Current evidence of interval LC within or beyond 30 days demonstrates no significant impact on outcomes. Patient factors, clinical experience, and hospital facilities may prove more important predictors.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Gallstones are highly prevalent, and more than 9000 cholecystectomies are performed annually in Denmark. The aim of this guideline was to improve the clinical course of patients with gallstone disease including a subgroup of high-risk patients. Outcomes included reduction of complications, readmissions, and need for additional interventions in patients with uncomplicated gallstone disease, acute cholecystitis, and common bile duct stones (CBDS). METHODS An interdisciplinary group of clinicians developed the guideline according to the GRADE methodology. Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) were primarily included. Non-RCTs were included if RCTs could not answer the clinical questions. Recommendations were strong or weak depending on effect estimates, quality of evidence, and patient preferences. RESULTS For patients with acute cholecystitis, acute laparoscopic cholecystectomy is recommended (16 RCTs, strong recommendation). Gallbladder drainage may be used as an interval procedure before a delayed laparoscopic cholecystectomy in patients with temporary contraindications to surgery and severe acute cholecystitis (1 RCT and 1 non-RCT, weak recommendation). High-risk patients are suggested to undergo acute laparoscopic cholecystectomy instead of drainage (1 RCT and 1 non-RCT, weak recommendation). For patients with CBDS, a one-step procedure with simultaneous laparoscopic cholecystectomy and CBDS removal by laparoscopy or endoscopy is recommended (22 RCTs, strong recommendation). In high-risk patients with CBDS, laparoscopic cholecystectomy is suggested to be included in the treatment (6 RCTs, weak recommendation). For diagnosis of CBDS, the use of magnetic resonance imaging or endoscopic ultrasound prior to surgical treatment is recommended (8 RCTs, strong recommendation). For patients with uncomplicated symptomatic gallstone disease, observation is suggested as an alternative to laparoscopic cholecystectomy (2 RCTs, weak recommendation). CONCLUSIONS Seven recommendations, four weak and three strong, for treating patients with symptomatic gallstone disease were developed. Studies for treatment of high-risk patients are few and more are needed. ENDORSEMENT The Danish Surgical Society.

Abstract
Background: We compared the clinical outcomes of laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) after percutaneous transhepatic gallbladder drainage (PTGBD) with those of emergency LC (ELC) in patients with moderate acute cholecystitis (AC) as per the Tokyo Guidelines. Methods: A meta-analysis of clinical comparative studies investigating the efficacy of PTGBD combined with LC (PTGBD + LC) versus ELC for moderate AC patients was performed. Results: The PTGBD + LC group had a shorter operative time (mean difference [MD] = -25.02 minutes; 95% confidence interval [95% CI] -35.50 to -14.54; P < .00001), less intraoperative bleeding (MD = -33.38 mL; 95% CI -45.43 to -21.33; P < .00001), shorter postoperative hospital stay (MD = -2.37 days; 95% CI -3.30 to -1.44; P < .00001), lower conversion rate (odds ratio [OR] 0.23; 95% CI 0.11-0.48; P < .0001), and lower total postoperative morbidity (OR 0.26; 95% CI, 0.10-0.67; P = .005) compared with the ELC group. There was no significant difference in total hospital stay (MD = 1.71 days; 95% CI -0.17 to 3.60; P = .08) and the incidence of bile leak (OR 0.30; 95% CI 0.07-1.29; P = .11). Conclusions: Compared with ELC, LC after PTGBD can effectively reduce the difficulty of operation, total postoperative morbidity, and conversion rate, and shorten the postoperative hospital stay and operative duration in patients with moderate AC as per the Tokyo Guidelines. In clinical practice, it is necessary to formulate individualized treatment plans based on the condition and willingness of the patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Percutaneous cholecystostomy is performed by interventional radiologists for patients with calculous/acalculous cholecystitis who are poor candidates for cholecystectomy. Two anatomical approaches are widely utilized: transperitoneal and transhepatic. PURPOSE To compare the clinical outcomes of transperitoneal and transhepatic approaches to cholecystostomy catheter placement. MATERIAL AND METHODS From December 2007 to August 2015, 165 consecutive patients (97 men, 68 women) underwent either transperitoneal (n = 89) or transhepatic (n = 76) cholecystostomy at a single center. Indications were calculous cholecystitis (n = 21), acalculous cholecystitis (n = 35), hydrops (n = 1), gangrenous cholecystitis (n = 1), and other cholecystitis (n = 107). The most common high-risk co-morbidities were sepsis (n = 53) and cardiac (n = 11). Outcomes were compared using univariate and multivariable analysis. RESULTS Post-procedure outcomes included tube dislodgement (transperitoneal [n = 6] and transhepatic [n = 3], P = 0.44), bile leak (transperitoneal [n = 5], transhepatic [n = 1], P = 0.14), gallbladder hemorrhage (transperitoneal [n = 2]; transhepatic [n = 3], P = 0.52), duodenal fistula (transperitoneal [n = 0], transhepatic [n = 1], P = 0.27), repeat cholecystostomy (transperitoneal [n = 1], transhepatic [n = 3], P = 0.27), and repeat cholecystitis requiring separate admission (transperitoneal [n = 6], transhepatic [n = 10], P = 0.15). All complications were Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events grade <3. Twenty transperitoneal patients underwent post-procedure cholecystectomy: 13 laparoscopic, three open, and four unclear/outside records. The mean time from cholecystostomy to operation was 38 days (range 3-211 days). Twenty-three transhepatic patients underwent cholecystectomy: 14 laparoscopic, eight open, and one unclear/outside records, with the mean time from cholecystostomy being 98 days (range 0-1053 days). One transhepatic and three transperitoneal patients died during admission. CONCLUSION There were no significant differences in short-term complications after transperitoneal and transhepatic approaches to percutaneous cholecystostomy catheter placement.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Laparoscopic cholecystectomy (Lap-C) is generally performed following percutaneous transhepatic gallbladder drainage (PTGBD) in patients with acute cholecystitis (AC). However, the timing of Lap-C and risk factors for postoperative complications following PTGBD are still unclear. METHODS We analyzed 331 patients with AC who underwent Lap-C following PTGBD. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were used for identifying risk factors associated with poor surgical outcomes, including postoperative complications in the total group and the early Lap-C subgroup (n = 152). Based on the Tokyo guideline 2013 (TG 13), all patients were divided into two groups according to the period (2009-2013, pre-TG 13 group; 2014-2020, post-TG 13 group), and each analysis was performed in those subgroups. RESULTS We found that early Lap-C (≤ 42 days after PTGBD) was associated with postoperative complications (OR 2.04, P = .022). Importantly, subgroup analyses revealed that Charlson comorbidity index (CCI) (OR 6.15, P < .001) and cholecystitis severity grade (OR 2.93, P = .014) were independent risk factors of postoperative complications in the early Lap-C group. Among the early Lap-C group, high CCI was also an independent risk factor for surgical complications in both pre-TG 13 (OR 14.87, P = .003) and post-TG 13 (OR 3.23, P = .046) groups. Interestingly, we found that the incidence of postoperative complications in the low-risk early Lap-C group was not different from the delayed group, even in the cases of very early surgery (≤ 1 week following PTGBD). CONCLUSIONS These findings suggest that early Lap-C is feasible following PTGBD, especially in low-risk patients, although future prospective large-scale studies are needed.

Abstract
Laparoscopic cholecystectomy and percutaneous transhepatic gallbladder drainage (PTGBD) are common treatments for patients with acute cholecystitis. However, the safety and efficacy of emergency laparoscopic cholecystectomy (ELC) and delayed laparoscopic cholecystectomy (DLC) after PTGBD in patients with acute cholecystitis remain unclear. The PubMed, EMBASE, and Cochrane Library databases were searched through October 2019. The quality of the included nonrandomized studies was assessed using the Methodological Index for Nonrandomized Studies (MINORS). The meta-analysis was performed using STATA version 14.2. A random-effects model was used to calculate the outcomes. A total of fifteen studies involving 1780 patients with acute cholecystitis were included in the meta-analysis. DLC after PTGBD was associated with a shorter operative time (SMD − 0.51; 95% CI − 0.89 to − 0.13; P = 0.008), a lower conversion rate (RR 0.43; 95% CI 0.26 to 0.69; P = 0.001), less intraoperative blood loss (SMD − 0.59; 95% CI − 0.96 to − 0.22; P = 0.002) and longer time of total hospital stay compared to ELC (SMD 0.91; 95% CI 0.57–1.24; P < 0.001). There was no difference in the postoperative complications (RR 0.68; 95% CI 0.48–0.97; P = 0.035), biliary leakage (RR 0.65; 95% CI 0.34–1.22; P = 0.175) or mortality (RR 1.04; 95% CI 0.39–2.80; P = 0.933). Compared to ELC, DLC after PTGBD had the advantages of a shorter operative time, a lower conversion rate and less intraoperative blood loss.

[PMID: 33010429 DOI: 10.1016/j.jamcollsurg.2020.09.019] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/12/2020] [Revised: 09/09/2020] [Accepted: 09/10/2020] [Indexed: 12/12/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Acute cholecystitis in nonsurgical candidates is often managed with cholecystostomy tube drainage. After symptom resolution, management options include cholecystectomy, long-term tube drainage, or tube removal. Percutaneous cholecystolithotomy (PCCL) can offer another therapeutic option for patients who are poor operative candidates. STUDY DESIGN A retrospective study of PCCL performed between December 2000 and September 2017 was conducted. Demographic characteristics, procedure details, gallstone-related complications, procedure-related complications, readmission, and mortality data were collected. RESULTS Seventy-five patients were identified (52.0% male, 48.0% female, mean ± SD age 75.6 ± 13.9 years). Mean ± SD follow-up time was 2.8 ± 3.7 years. Most of the patients (90.7%) had an American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status classification of 3 or 4. Eleven patients (14.7%) had failed earlier cholecystectomy. A total of 96 PCCL procedures were performed, and complete gallstone removal was achieved in 68 of 75 patients (90.7%), including all patients with previously aborted cholecystectomy. The 30-day and 90-day readmission rates were 4% and 8%, respectively. Three patients (3.9%) subsequently underwent cholecystectomy after PCCL. Ten (10.4%) procedure-related complications (Clavien-Dindo grade I and II) and 17 (22.7%) gallstone-related complications occurred during the follow-up period. Postprocedural choledocholithiasis occurred in 6 patients (8.0%). Recurrent gallstones developed in 5 patients (6.3%) (3 patients undergoing cholecystectomy and 2 patients treated with cholecystostomy tube). CONCLUSIONS PCCL is a viable option for management of symptomatic gallbladder stones in high-risk surgical patients. There is a high technical success rate, even in patients with earlier failed cholecystectomy. Most patients (77.3%) avoided gallstone-related complications after the procedure.

World J Gastroenterol 2020; 26:5498-5507. [PMID: 33024400 PMCID: PMC7520604 DOI: 10.3748/wjg.v26.i36.5498] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/10/2020] [Revised: 08/25/2020] [Accepted: 08/31/2020] [Indexed: 02/06/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND B-mode-ultrasound-guided percutaneous cholecystostomy (PC) may be performed by a transhepatic or transperitoneal approach, called percutaneous transhepatic gallbladder drainage (PHGD) and percutaneous transperitoneal gallbladder drainage (PPGD), respectively. We compared the impact of PC related to the route of catheter placement on subsequent laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC).
AIM To compare the impact of PC related to the route of catheter placement on subsequent LC.
METHODS We retrospectively studied 103 patients with acute calculous cholecystitis who underwent scheduled LC after PC between January 2010 and January 2019. Group I included 58 patients who underwent scheduled LC after PHGD. Group II included 45 patients who underwent scheduled LC after PPGD. Clinical outcomes were analyzed according to each group.
RESULTS Baseline demographic characteristics did not differ significantly between both groups (P > 0.05). Both PHGD and PPGD were able to quickly resolve cholecystitis sepsis. Group I showed significantly higher efficacy than group II in terms of lower pain score during puncture (3.1 vs 4.5; P = 0.001) and at 12 h follow-up (1.5 vs 2.2; P = 0.001), lower rate of fever within 24 h after PC (13.8% vs 42.2%; P = 0.001), shorted operation duration (118.3 vs 139.6 min; P = 0.001), lower amount of intraoperative bleeding (72.1 vs 109.4 mL; P = 0.001) and shorter length of hospital stay (14.3 d vs 18.0 d; P = 0.001). However, group II had significantly lower rate of local bleeding at the PC site (2.2% vs 20.7%; P = 0.005) and lower rate of severe adhesion (33.5% vs 55.2%; P = 0.048). No significant differences were noted between both groups regarding the conversion rate to laparotomy, rate of subtotal cholecystectomy, complications and pathology.
CONCLUSION B-mode-ultrasound-guided PHGD is superior to PPGD followed by LC for treatment of acute calculous cholecystitis, with shorter operating time, minimal amount of intraoperative bleeding and short length of hospital stay.

Asian J Surg 2020; 44:334-338. [PMID: 32896466 DOI: 10.1016/j.asjsur.2020.08.008] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/06/2020] [Revised: 05/18/2020] [Accepted: 08/17/2020] [Indexed: 12/26/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The objective of this study was to determine the appropriate timing for surgical intervention for Grade II acute cholecystitis patients. The study compares the clinical outcomes of patients in Group A, who were treated with early laparoscopic cholecystectomy (ELC) within the first two weeks of hospitalization, and Group B, treated with delayed laparoscopic cholecystectomy (DLC) after recovering from symptoms and that received conservative treatment and were discharged for more than two weeks. METHODS From November 2011 to June 2019, from a total of 196 acute cholecystitis patients that received percutaneous transhepatic gallbladder drainage (PTGBD) insertion, we conducted a retrospective review of the group that received early laparoscopic cholecystectomy within 2 weeks and the group that received delayed laparoscopic cholecystectomy. The clinical characteristics and post-treatment outcomes were evaluated. RESULTS In all patients treated with PTGBD insertion, Group A, the patients who were treated with ELC, showed a significantly longer mean operative time than Group B, the patients who were treated with DLC (72.46 ± 46.396 vs. 54.08 ± 27.12, P = 0.001). Similarly, Group A showed a significantly longer postoperative hospital stay compared to Group B (5.71 ± 5.062 vs. 4.27 ± 2.931, P = 0.014). CONCLUSION In patients with Grade II acute cholecystitis with PTGBD insertion, DLC produces better outcomes with shorter hospital stay and operative time than ELC. These results suggest that DLC may lead to a better outcome than ELC, specifically when deciding the timing for laparoscopic cholecystectomy in patients diagnosed with acute Grade II cholecystitis.

Abstract
Gallstone disease accounts for the vast majority of acute surgical admissions in the UK, with a major treatment being cholecystectomy. Practice varies significantly as to whether surgery is performed during the acute symptomatic phase, or after a period of recovery. Differences in practice relate to operative factors, patient factors, surgeon factors and hospital and trust wide policies. In this review we summarize recent evidence on management of gallstone disease, particularly with respect to whether cholecystectomy should occur during index presentation or following recovery. We highlight morbidity and mortality studies, cost, and patient reported outcomes. We speculate on barriers to change in service delivery. Finally, we propose potential solutions to optimize care.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Optimal interval from percutaneous transhepatic gallbladder drainage (PTGBD) to cholecystectomy for acute cholecystitis remains unclear. METHODS We analyzed patients undergoing cholecystectomy following PTGBD for acute cholecystitis, using a national database. We performed restricted cubic spline (RCS) analyses to investigate the association of interval from PTGBD to cholecystectomy with outcomes (mortality/morbidity, blood transfusion, duration of anesthesia, and postoperative hospital stay). RESULTS Among 9,256 patients, RCS analyses showed reverse J-shaped associations of the interval with mortality/morbidity and blood transfusion, and J-shaped associations of the interval with both duration of anesthesia and postoperative hospital stay. Each interval was compared with the bottom of the spline curve. Patients with intervals ≤6 days or ≥27 days had higher mortality/morbidity than those with a 10-day interval. Patients with intervals ≤8 days had higher proportions of blood transfusion than those with a 10-day interval. Patients with intervals ≥17 days had longer duration of anesthesia than those with a 5-day interval. Postoperative hospital stay was longer among those with intervals ≤10 days or ≥19 days than those with a 15-day interval. CONCLUSIONS Based on the mortality/morbidity data, the optimum time to perform cholecystectomy is between 7 and 26 days after PTGBD.

Abstract
Acute cholecystitis is one of the most frequent diseases faced by the general surgeon. In recent decades, different prognostic factors have been observed, and effective treatments described, to improve the results in patients with said pathology (lower morbidity and mortality, shorter hospital stay, and minimum conversion of laparoscopic to open procedures). In general, laparoscopic cholecystectomy is the standard treatment for acute cholecystitis, but it is not exempt from complications, especially in patients with numerous comorbidities or those that are critically ill. Percutaneous cholecystostomy emerged as a less invasive alternative for the treatment of acute cholecystitis in patients with organ failure or a prohibitive surgical risk. Even though it is an effective procedure, its usefulness and precise indications are subjects of debate. In addition, there is little evidence on cholecystostomy catheter management. We carried out a review of the literature covering the main aspects physicians involved in the management of acute cholecystitis should be familiar with.

Abstract
Introduction The preferred treatment for acute cholecystitis is cholecystectomy, but for patients with precluded general anesthesia due to critical illness or multiple medical comorbidities it is not suitable. Cholecystostomy could be a minimally invasive therapeutic alternative. Aim To retrospectively evaluate the indications, technical features, efficacy, complications, patients’ development and relationships among monitored parameters of percutaneous computed tomography (CT)-guided cholecystostomies in cases of acute cholecystitis and find the role of this procedure in appropriate treatment selection. Material and methods Over the course of 10 years, 75 percutaneous cholecystostomy procedures in 69 patients were performed in cases with diagnosed acute cholecystitis, precluded general anesthesia and contraindicated cholecystectomy by an experienced surgeon and anesthesiologist. These interventions were done using only local anesthesia. The patients were men in 39 cases and women in 33 cases, aged 33 to 91 years. Results Technical success was achieved in all cases. The indications were sepsis in 34 (45.3%) cases, bridging acute gallbladder inflammatory status in 15 (20%) interventions, serious medical comorbidities in 8 (10.7%) cases, disseminated malignancy and cardiac failure in 6 cases each (both 8%) and neurological affections in 5 (6.5%) cases. Cholecystostomy was frequently the final solution in acalculous cholecystitis (79.3%). The 30-day mortality rate was determined at 10.7% and the overall complication rate was 21.3%, but all of these complications were managed conservatively or using minimally invasive treatment. Conclusions Percutaneous CT-guided cholecystostomy is reserved for patients with a serious medical status for various reasons that preclude surgical treatment and general anesthesia. Simultaneously, technical success and efficacy are high and the complication rate is acceptable.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Patients with persistent symptoms of acute cholecystitis for >72 h who cannot undergo urgent laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) often undergo percutaneous transhepatic gallbladder drainage (PTGBD) and delayed LC. However, intraoperative near-infrared fluorescence with indocyanine green (ICG) has recently become available in various surgical settings. Therefore, we evaluated the usability of intraoperative fluorescence imaging with ICG for LC after PTGBD in patients with acute cholecystitis. METHODS The preoperative and postoperative clinical characteristics of patients who underwent LC after PTGBD were retrospectively analyzed. RESULTS In total, 130 patients were reviewed. Intraoperative ICG fluorescence imaging was used in 39 (30.0%) patients, and none developed adverse reactions. Patients with ICG fluorescence imaging had a significantly shorter operative time (129 ± 46 vs. 150 ± 56 min, p = 0.0455), markedly lower conversion rate (2.6% vs. 22.0%, p = 0.0017), and lower proportion of subtotal cholecystectomy (0.0% vs. 6.6%, p = 0.0359) than patients without ICG fluorescence imaging. Independent risk factors for conversion to laparotomy during LC after PTGBD were the performance of PTGBD after 48 h from onset (OR 3.52; 95% CI 1.11-12.21; p = 0.0322), an unremoved PTGBD tube on LC (4.48, 1.46-15.00, p = 0.0084), and surgery without ICG (8.00, 1.28-159.47, p = 0.0231). CONCLUSION Intraoperative ICG fluorescence imaging produced better surgical outcomes without any adverse reactions. Early performance of PTGBD and intraoperative ICG fluorescence imaging can reduce the surgical difficulties in LC after PTGBD for acute cholecystitis.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Percutaneous cholecystostomy tube drainage has played a vital role in management of cholecystitis in patients where surgery is not appropriate. However, management differs from unit to unit and even between different consultants in the same unit. We conducted this systematic review to understand which of these resulted in the best patient outcomes. METHODS We conducted a systematic review using the PubMed database for publication between January 2006 to December 2016. Keyword variants of 'cholecystostomy' and 'cholecystitis' were combined to identify potential relevant papers for inclusion. FINDINGS We identified 46 studies comprising a total of 312,085 patients from 20 different countries. These papers were reviewed, critically appraised and summarised in table format. Percutaneous cholecystostomy tube drainage is an important treatment modality with an excellent safety profile. It has been used successfully both as a definitive procedure and as a bridge to surgery. There continues to be great variation, however, when it comes to the indications, timing and management of these drains. As far as we are aware, this is the only systematic review to cover the past 10 years. It provides a much-needed update, considering all the technological development and new treatment options in laparoscopic surgery and interventional radiology.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Patients with moderate (grade II) acute cholecystitis patients, as defined by the 2013 Tokyo Guidelines, were retrospectively compared with respect to emergency cholecystectomy (EC) and delayed cholecystectomy (DC) after percutaneous transhepatic gallbladder drainage (PTGBD) to determine the better treatment strategy. METHODS Forty-nine of 103 patients with PTGBD and 47 of 54 patients with EC were assessed for eligibility from January 2013 to January 2017. Patients with the following conditions were included: (i) moderate (grade II) acute cholecystitis diagnosed by the 2013 Tokyo Guidelines; (ii) no common bile duct stones; (iii) no atrophic cholecystitis; (iv) no decompensated liver cirrhosis and massive ascites; (v) no diffuse peritonitis; (vi) surgeons are professors or associate professors; and (vii) PTGBD is not the only procedure for the patient defined by clinicians. The preoperative characteristics and postoperative outcomes were analyzed. PTGBD was performed by experienced interventional radiologists and cholecystectomy was performed by professors or associate professors. RESULTS Patients in the EC and PTGBD + DC groups had similar demographic, clinical, preoperative laboratory, and imaging characteristics. Both PTGBD and EC resolved the cholecystitis quickly. Compared to the PTGBD + DC group, EC patients had more intraoperative bleeding (101 ± 125 mL versus 33 ± 37 mL, P = .003), longer duration of postoperative abdominal drainage (9.0 ± 12.9 days versus 3.4 ± 2.1 days, P = .041), more patients converted to open cholecystectomy (OC; 19.1% versus 4.1%, P = .021), more OC patients (14.9% versus 0%, P = .005), more patients with gangrenous cholecystitis (40.4% versus 8.2%, P < .001), more cholecystitis patients with perforation (12.8% versus 0%, P = .012), a higher incidence of respiratory failure (14.8% versus 2.0%, P = .029), more admissions to the intensive care unit (ICU) (21.3% versus 2.0%, P = .003), and longer postoperative hospital stays (8.2 ± 3.2 days versus 11.6 ± 4.6 days, P < .001) in the PTGBD + DC group. In addition, there were statistically more OC patients (63.2% versus 14.3%, P = .001) in the nonbiliary surgeon group than the biliary surgeon group. CONCLUSION(S) In patients with moderate (grade II) acute cholecystitis, PTGBD and EC were highly efficient in resolving cholecystitis. DC patients after PTGBD had better outcomes with a lower rate of OC, less intraoperative bleeding, shorter duration of postoperative abdominal drainage, shorter hospital stays after cholecystectomy, a lower incidence of respiratory failure, fewer admissions to the ICU than EC, and reversed the pathologic process affecting the gallbladder. The total postoperative hospital stay was longer in the PTGBD + DC group.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The option of either single- or two-staged cyst excision has been proposed for perforated choledochal cysts (CCs), but which of the two methods is more effective remains controversial. We examined the complications and short-term outcomes of single-stage excision of perforated and non-perforated CCs. METHODS The medical records of patients treated for CCs from 2003 to 2016 were retrospectively reviewed. Outcomes were compared between patients with perforated CCs (Group A) and non-perforated CCs (Group B). The operative time, intraoperative bleeding, length of stay, and postoperative complications were analyzed. RESULTS Group A comprised 6 patients (2 males, 4 females; mean age, 29months), and Group B comprised 26 patients (2 males, 24 females; mean age, 41months). All patients underwent single-stage complete excision with Roux-en-Y hepaticojejunostomy. There were no significant differences in the operative time, bleeding, and/or length of stay. There were no operative deaths or complications such as anastomosis leakage or postoperative cholangitis, but a pancreatic fistula developed in one patient in Group A and two in Group B. CONCLUSION Single-stage excision for a perforated CC is feasible if the patient's condition is stable. LEVELS OF EVIDENCE Treatment Study, LEVELIII.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the clinical effect of the laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) after percutaneous transhepatic gallbladder drainage (PTGD) in elder acute cholecystitis. METHODS The Cochrane Library, PubMed, China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), VIP, and Wanfang Databases were searched for randomized controlled trials (RCTs) on LC after PTGD in elder acute cholecystitis published from 1970 to July 2017. Two researchers selected RCTs, extracted data, and evaluated methodological quality independently, and RevMan 5.3 software was used for the meta-analysis. The chi-square test was used for heterogeneity analysis of RCTs included, and the funnel plots were used to evaluate publication bias. RESULTS A total of 9 RCTs with 1000 patients were included in this analysis. Compared with the direct LC Group, the PTGD Group has significant better effect in operative duration (minutes) [standard mean difference (SMD) = -1.37, 95% confidence interval (95% CI): -2.52 to -0.22, P = .02], the amount of intraoperative bleeding (mL) (SMD = -1.38, 95% CI: -2.11 to -0.65, P = .0002), conversion rate to laparotomy (%) [odds ratio (OR) = 0.16, 95% CI: 0.08 to 0.31, P < .00001], postoperative complication morbidity (%) (OR = 0.29, 95% CI: 0.17 to 0.51, P < .0001), and postoperative hospital stay (days) (SMD = -1.26, 95% CI: -1.94 to -0.59, P = .0003). The funnel plots were slightly asymmetric, which suggested the presence of publication bias. CONCLUSION The PTGD before scheduled LC can effectively not only shorten operative duration, intraoperative bleeding less, and postoperative hospital stay but also decrease the rate to laparotomy and postoperative complication morbidity in elder acute cholecystitis, and it is recommended to be regarded as the preferred therapy of the elder patients.
