What is The Impact of Routine Cholangiography For Asymptomatic Patients After Cholecystostomy Insertion For Acute Cholecystitis about?

This study investigates the impact of routine cholangiography on asymptomatic patients after percutaneous cholecystostomy for acute cholecystitis. The results indicate that routine cholangiography significantly reduces the readmission rate for biliary disease compared to clinical follow-up alone, without delaying further treatment. Overall, the cholangiography group had a readmission rate of 22.7% versus 40.7% in the control group over an average follow-up of 10.4 months.
