Article Synopsis
  • - The study examined whether performing early laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) for patients with acute calculous cholecystitis is better than a delayed approach by assessing intraoperative difficulty and postoperative results.
  • - Researchers looked at 60 patients divided into two groups: one underwent surgery within 3 to 5 days of admission (early group), while the other had surgery after a conservative treatment period of 3 to 6 weeks (delayed group).
  • - Results showed that early LC had a significantly shorter operating time (56.67 minutes vs. 75.67 minutes) and shorter hospital stays (3.40 days vs. 6.27 days) without an increase in conversion rates, suggesting early surgery
