What this study is testing
- What it's testing
- Percutaneous drainage in acute cholecystitis has been recommended by the recent update of the Tokyo Guidelines for patients with grade II and III disease who are unable to undergo surgical treatment due to their condition or associated comorbidities. There are no reports providing high-quality scientific evidence on the optimal timing for surgery after percutaneous transhepatic gallbladder drainage, so a consensus has not been reached.
