[Early Surgery for Acute Cholecystitis Complicated with Gallbladder Cancer]

The present study involved 6 patients who had urgent surgery for acute cholecystitis(AC)complicated with gallbladder cancer(GBC)in our hospital from January 2014 to December 2016. We analyzed the clinical outcome of early surgery for AC complicated with GBC. According to Tokyo Guidelines 2013, the AC severity was classified as Mild 1 case, Moderate 5 cases. Only one patient was diagnosed with GBC before the operation for AC. The others were during or after the laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Histopathologically, all patients had Stage II disease or greater. Two patients had adjunctive radical operation with the wedge resection of the gallbladder bed, lymphadenectomy and bile duct resection, and they survived without recurrence for 28 months and 12 months, respectively. Of the 3 patients without any additional surgery, 2 patients died in several months after the operation. In consideration of the concurrence of GBC, early surgery for AC must be decided carefully.
