    Area of Science:

    • Surgical error analysis
    • Patient safety in acute cholecystitis management

    Context:

    • Acute cholecystitis surgery presents significant risks.
    • Medical errors can impact patient outcomes and recovery.

    Purpose:

    • To identify and quantify medical errors in acute cholecystitis operations.
    • To analyze the types and demographics associated with these errors.

    Summary:

    • 14.28% of 1029 patients had medical errors during acute cholecystitis surgery.
    • Diagnostic errors (44.90%) were most frequent, especially in older males.
    • Tactical and technical errors also contributed significantly to adverse events.

    Impact:

    • Findings highlight critical areas for surgical training and protocol improvement.
  • Reducing diagnostic and technical errors can enhance patient safety and outcomes.
