Complications of Non-Surgical Treatment in Acute Cholecystitis

Acute cholecystitis (AC) is the second most frequent pathology in Surgical Emergencies; laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) is the gold standard treatment, but not all patients are fit for surgery. Percutaneous Cholecystostomy (PC) is an alternative to LC but has high comorbidity. There is no protocol in our institution for Non-Surgical Treatment (NST). This study aims to analyse the complications of non-surgical treatment and a new local management algorithm
