Abstract
- Background: the diagnosis of gangrenous acute cholecystitis represents a diagnostic challenge for the physician and is rarely identified preoperatively. Material and methods: we report a longitudinal prospective study in 180 patients who underwent cholecystectomy for acute cholecystitis. A ROC curve was obtained to determine the preoperative cut-off for various biomarkers (neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio [NLR], C-reactive protein [CRP], platelet to lymphocyte ratio [PLR], lactate and procalcitonin) and their association with both preoperative and postoperative findings. Results: the area under the curve (AUC) for NLR, CRP, PLR, lactate and procalcitonin was 0.75, 0.8, 0.65 and 0.6, respectively. Conclusion: NLR > 5 and CRP > 100 are still independent factors for gangrene (adjusted odds ratio [OR], 2 and 2.1, respectively).
