Cholecystectomy in Mild and Moderate Acute Pancreatitis: A Retrospective Study.

Cholecystectomy has been a subject of debate regarding its timing and utility in cases of mild and moderately severe acute pancreatitis (AP). We aimed to critically evaluate the role of early cholecystectomy in the management of mild and moderate AP, considering patient's characteristics, associated procedures, and overall impact on patient outcomes. The study compared the outcomes between patients admitted in a tertiary care surgical center undergoing early ( 96h) versus delayed ( 96h) laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) for mild and moderately severe acute gallstone pancreatitis between January 2019 and December 2022.
