Resumen
Although cholecystectomy is the treatment of choice for acute cholecystitis (AC), in patients with high surgical risk percutaneous cholecystostomy (PC) is chosen in some cases. The aim of this report is to follow up these patients and evaluate biliary recurrences after PC. Methods. A descriptive retrospective study was carried out in a third level hospital from August 2005 to December 2014. All patients diagnosed with acute lithiasis cholecystitis who were indicated as initial treatment with antibiotic therapy and PC echo-guided were included. Patients requiring emergent cholecystectomy during hospital and those who died during the AC episode were excluded.After hospital discharge, the patients were divided into two groups: group 1 (interval cholecystectomy) and group 2 (no surgery). Results. From the 86 healed patients, there were 8 losses in the follow-up, so 78 patients were analyzed: group 1 (n=12) and group 2 (n=66).
