Article Synopsis
- Percutaneous transhepatic gallbladder drainage (PTGBD) serves as a less invasive option for treating acute cholecystitis compared to traditional methods like cholecystostomy.
- A study analyzed 113 patients who underwent delayed laparoscopic cholecystectomy (DLC) after PTGBD and compared their outcomes with those who did not have PTGBD, finding that the PTGBD group faced more complications and a tougher surgical process.
- The results showed that patients who received PTGBD had a longer recovery time, more blood loss, and a higher difficulty score during surgery, although conversion rates between both groups were similar.
