It is established that the standard treatment for lithiasic acute cholecystitis is the laparoscopic cholecystectomie. However, the question of the timing of cholecystectomy remains controversial.To compare early laparoscopic cholecystectomies (within 72 hours of symptom onset) and delayed laparoscopic cholecystectomies (beyond 72 hours) for lithiasic acute cholecystitis in terms of intra-operative difficulties and post-operative complications.The patients operated on for acute cholecystitis, between January 2007 and December 2012, were included in a retrospective study. They were divided into two groups based on whether surgery was performed before (group A) or after (group B) 72 hours after the onset of symptoms. We conducted a comparison between the two groups.The two groups were comparable in terms of background, clinico-biological presentation, and radiological findings. The average time of surgery was 111.6 hours after symptom onset. Duration of surgery was significantly longer for group B (97 minutes versus 82.17 minutes, p = 0.003). There was more conversion in group B than in group A, without significant difference (20% versus 11.6%, p = 0.14). There were no deaths in our series. Specific post-operative complications were comparable between the two groups (wound infection: 3 (B) versus 1 (A), biliary fistula: 8 (B) versus 0 (A), p = Non significant). The post-operative hospital stay was significantly longer in group B (3.34 days versus 1.84, p10-3).In case of early laparoscopic cholecystectomy, the conversion rate and post-operative morbidity are comparable to the delayed treatment of acute cholecystitis. But the early surgery can reduce the cost of care, the duration of surgery and the hospital stay. Key-words : Lithiasic acute cholecystitis ; Laparoscopic cholecystectomy. |
