C-reactive protein to albumin ratio predicts difficult laparoscopic cholecystectomy in patients with acute cholecystitis diagnosed according to the Tokyo Guidelines 2018

Masashi Utsumi et al.

Summary: This study evaluated the predictive value of C-reactive protein/albumin ratio (CAR) for difficult laparoscopic cholecystectomy (DLC) in patients with acute cholecystitis (AC). We developed a preoperative predictive model for DLC based on male gender, CAR, and pericholecystic fat hyperdensity on computed tomography (CT). CAR was found to independently predict DLC in AC patients.

Accuracy of pre-operative parameters in predicting severe cholecystitis-A systematic review

Sualeh Muslim Khan et al.

Summary: This review aimed at identifying the predictors of severe cholecystitis and found that CT findings were the most significant predictors, including parameters such as attenuation of the arterial phase, gallbladder mural striation, and decreased gallbladder wall enhancement. Patients with clinical and laboratory predictors of severe cholecystitis should undergo urgent contrast CT scans to rule out any severe complications.
