    Early surgery for acute cholecystitis is crucial. This condition, often starting aseptic, becomes complicated by sepsis if not treated promptly, reducing mortality rates, especially in younger patients.

    Area of Science:

    • Gastroenterology
    • Pathology
    • Surgical Oncology

    Context:

    • Analyzed 333 cases of acute cholecystitis from 2,200 gallstone surgeries.
    • Conducted 186 bacteriological tests on gallbladder fluid and tissue.
    • Identified key pathological changes including mucosal destruction and inflammation.

    Purpose:

    • To investigate the pathological characteristics and etiological factors of acute cholecystitis.
    • To determine the optimal timing and necessity of antibiotic therapy.
    • To correlate pathological findings with therapeutic outcomes and mortality.

    Summary:

    • Acute cholecystitis involves early gallbladder wall destruction due to calculus obstruction, initially aseptic.
    • Sepsis is a secondary complication, emphasizing the need for early surgical intervention.

  • Early surgery during the aseptic stage, without preliminary antibiotics, significantly reduces mortality.

    • Impact:

    • Highlights the critical importance of early surgical intervention in acute cholecystitis.
    • Challenges the routine use of preoperative antibiotics in aseptic cases.
    • Suggests improved outcomes and reduced mortality, particularly in patients under 65.
