[Justification for an active surgical procedure in the outcome in acute cholecystitis].

Long-term results (up to 25 years) in 624 patients with acute cholecystitis discharged from the hospital without operation were found to be unsatisfactory in 68,4% of cases: 54,1% needed an operative treatment, 14,3% were operated upon. Mortality from complications after cholecystitis among non-operated patients in the remote period was 3,4%. Better results of treatment may be obtained by increased surgical activity and higher quality of prophylactic medical examination of patients with cholecystitis.
