Abstract:
Laparoscopic and open cholecystectomy was performed in different terms in 2600 patients for cholecystitis. In 85% of patients, operated on in terms up to 72 h of an acute period, and in 10% of the patients, operated in a "cold" period, the destructive changes were revealed in gallbladder. In 17% of patients, operated in more late terms, the destructive changes were not revealed. The concept of the staged course of inflammation and suggestions concerning favourable and unfavourable terms of the operation performance must be revised.

Cholecystitis is inflammation of the gallbladder, most commonly caused by obstruction of the cystic duct. This blockage prevents bile from draining, leading to gallbladder distension, inflammation, and potentially serious complications. This condition may present acutely or chronically and can happen with or without gallstones.EtiologyAbout 95% of cholecystitis cases are calculous, caused by gallstones blocking the cystic duct, leading to bile accumulation and inflammation of the gallbladder...

The gallbladder is a small, pear-shaped organ that plays a crucial role in our digestive system. Measuring about 10 cm in length, it is comparable in size to a kiwi fruit and is located in a hollow area on the lower surface of the liver. The gallbladder's primary function is to store and concentrate bile, a fluid produced by the liver that aids in digestion.
The gallbladder's anatomy consists of three regions: the fundus, body, and neck. Extending from the neck, the cystic duct joins the common...
