Objective: to assess the safety and efficacy of laparoscopy in the treatment of symptomatic cholelithiasis in patients with Child´s Class A and Class B cirrhosis. Study design: descriptive and retrospective study. Patients: we studied 14 patients (mean age 60 yrs) with Child´s Class A and Class B hepatic cirrhosis who underwent laparoscopic cholecystectomy. We analyzed the occurrence of intraoperative and postoperative complications. Results: eight patients were women (57.14%) and 6 were men (42.85%). Eight of the 14 patients presented with Child's Class B cirrhosis and 6 patients with Class A. Cholecystectomy was programmed for all patients. The average duration of surgery was 77 min. Intraoperative complications occurred in 2 patients (14.28%) in the form of liver bed bleeding. Postoperative complications were observed in 3 patients (21.42%), 2 presented with ascites which led to a worsening of Child's Class in one of them, and the third patient presented with angina-like symptoms (acute, sharp pain in the chest irradiating to the back). Mean length of hospital stay was 3 days. No postoperative morbidity or mortality occurred, and there were no conversions. Conclusions: LC (laparoscopic cholecystectomy) is a safe and effective alternative for the treatment of symptomatic cholelithiasis in patients with well-compensated Child's Class A and Class B cirrhosis. Postoperative morbi-mortality is low, bleeding is unimportant, and both duration of surgical procedure and hospital stay are short. Objetivo: evaluar la seguridad y eficacia del uso de la laparoscopia en pacientes cirróticos en estadio A y B de Child-Pugh con colelitiasis sintomática. Diseño del estudio: estudio descriptivo, retrospectivo. Pacientes: catorce pacientes con una edad media de 60 años diagnosticados de cirrosis hepática en estadios A y B que se les practicó colecistectomía laparoscópica. Se estudia la aparición de complicaciones intraoperatorias y postoperatorias tras la intervención Resultados: ocho (57,14%) casos eran mujeres y 6 ( 42,85%) varones. De los 14 pacientes, 8 presentaban un estadio Child-Pugh B y 6 un Child-Pugh A. Todos los pacientes se intervienen de colelitiasis de forma programada. El tiempo operatorio medio fue de 77 min. Dos (14,28%) de los pacientes presentaron complicaciones intraoperatorias, sangrado del lecho quirúrgico. Tres (21,42%) pacientes presentaron complicaciones postoperatorias: dos (14,28%) presentaron ascitis con empeoramiento del Child-Pugh en uno de ellos y el otro presentó un cuadro anginoso. La estancia media de estos pacientes es de 3 días. No hubo ninguna muerte tras la intervención y no hubo ninguna reconversión. Conclusiones: la CL es una alternativa segura y efectiva en el tratamiento de colelitiasis sintomáticas en pacientes con cirrosis en estadio A y B compensada. Ofrece una baja morbimortalidad postoperatoria con una escasa pérdida de sangre, un tiempo operatorio corto y una reducida estancia hospitalaria.

Objective: analysis of clinical and surgical factors in a series of patients subjected to laparoscopic cholecystectomy in an outpatient unit and their relationship with time of discharge and patient acceptance. Patients and method: eighty one consecutive patients underwent to elective laparoscopic cholecystectomy during year 2002 within S.A.S. (Andalusian Health Service) from a surgical waiting list. Retrospective and comparative study between two groups: group A includes patients discharged between 24 and 48 hours after intervention; group B includes patients discharged in less than 24 hours. We analyse the clinical and surgical characteristics and post-operative outcome of both groups of patients. Results: group A was composed of 53 patients and group B of 28 patients. Factors of clinical significance which determined discharge after 24 hours included: early post-surgical incidences or complications (p = 0.017), inability to tolerate oral diet (p = 0.002), and doubts and feelings insecurity of patients regarding discharge by traditional means 62.3% (p = 0.0003). Conclusions: outpatient laparoscopic cholecystectomy is a safe and reliable procedure with a high acceptance rate and few complications. Perhaps traditional culture has to be changed to obtain better results. Objetivo: analizar los factores clínicos y quirúrgicos que en una serie de pacientes sometidos a colecistectomía laparoscópica ambulatoria influyeron en la decisión del momento del alta y cuál fue la aceptación de los pacientes al alta. Pacientes y método: en este estudio fueron incluidos 81 pacientes consecutivos procedentes de la lista de espera quirúrgica en quienes se realizó una colecistectomía laparoscópica electiva a lo largo del año 2002. Es un estudio retrospectivo y comparativo que incluye dos grupos de pacientes: los del grupo A fueron dados de alta entre 24 a 48 horas tras la intervención; los del grupo B lo fueron en menos de 24 horas. Analizamos las características clínicas, quirúrgicas y evolución postoperatoria de ambos grupos de pacientes Resultados: el grupo A estaba compuesto por 53 pacientes. El Grupo B por 28 pacientes. Los factores con significación estadística que determinaron que el alta se prolongara más de 24 horas fueron: las incidencias o complicaciones postquirúrgicas precoces (p=0,017), la no tolerancia oral de alimentos (p=0,002) y las dudas o inseguridad de los pacientes ante el alta determinada por la tradición cultural (62,3%; p=0,0003). Conclusiones: la colecistectomía laparoscópica ambulatoria es un procedimiento seguro y realizable, con un elevado porcentaje de aceptación y escasas complicaciones. Quizás se deba cambiar la tradición cultural para obtener mejores resultados.

- Abstract
Background: The incidence of the highly morbid and potentially lethal gangrenous cholecystitis was reportedly increased during the COVID-19 pandemic. The aim of the ChoCO-W study was to compare the clinical findings and outcomes of acute cholecystitis in patients who had COVID-19 disease with those who did not., Methods: Data were prospectively collected over 6 months (October 1, 2020, to April 30, 2021) with 1-month follow-up. In October 2020, Delta variant of SARS CoV-2 was isolated for the first time. Demographic and clinical data were analyzed and reported according to the STROBE guidelines. Baseline characteristics and clinical outcomes of patients who had COVID-19 were compared with those who did not., Results: A total of 2893 patients, from 42 countries, 218 centers, involved, with a median age of 61.3 (SD: 17.39) years were prospectively enrolled in this study; 1481 (51%) patients were males. One hundred and eighty (6.9%) patients were COVID-19 positive, while 2412 (93.1%) were negative. Concomitant preexisting diseases including cardiovascular diseases (p < 0.0001), diabetes (p < 0.0001), and severe chronic obstructive airway disease (p = 0.005) were significantly more frequent in the COVID-19 group. Markers of sepsis severity including ARDS (p < 0.0001), PIPAS score (p < 0.0001), WSES sepsis score (p < 0.0001), qSOFA (p < 0.0001), and Tokyo classification of severity of acute cholecystitis (p < 0.0001) were significantly higher in the COVID-19 group. The COVID-19 group had significantly higher postoperative complications (32.2% compared with 11.7%, p < 0.0001), longer mean hospital stay (13.21 compared with 6.51 days, p < 0.0001), and mortality rate (13.4% compared with 1.7%, p < 0.0001). The incidence of gangrenous cholecystitis was doubled in the COVID-19 group (40.7% compared with 22.3%). The mean wall thickness of the gallbladder was significantly higher in the COVID-19 group [6.32 (SD: 2.44) mm compared with 5.4 (SD: 3.45) mm; p < 0.0001]., Conclusions: The incidence of gangrenous cholecystitis is higher in COVID patients compared with non-COVID patients admitted to the emergency department with acute cholecystitis. Gangrenous cholecystitis in COVID patients is associated with high-grade Clavien-Dindo postoperative complications, longer hospital stay and higher mortality rate. The open cholecystectomy rate is higher in COVID compared with non -COVID patients. It is recommended to delay the surgical treatment in COVID patients, when it is possible, to decrease morbidity and mortality rates. COVID-19 infection and gangrenous cholecystistis are not absolute contraindications to perform laparoscopic cholecystectomy, in a case by case evaluation, in expert hands., (© 2022. The Author(s).)
