EUS drainage; acute cholecystitis; bridge to surgery
This study compared the efficacy and safety of endoscopic ultrasound-guided gallbladder drainage (EUS-GBD) and percutaneous transhepatic gallbladder drainage (PTGBD) as a bridge to surgery in patients with acute cholecystitis. The study found that both methods had a 100% technical success rate for cholecystectomy, and there was no significant difference in post-surgical adverse events between the two groups. The conclusion is that EUS-GBD may be an alternative transitional treatment option for patients with acute cholecystitis due to its lower adverse event rate.
Background and Aim: This study aimed to compare the efficacy and safety of endoscopic ultrasound-guided gallbladder drainage and percutaneous transhepatic gallbladder drainage as a bridge to surgery in patients with acute cholecystitis unfit for urgent cholecystectomy. Methods: This retrospective study included 46 patients who underwent cholecystectomy following endoscopic ultrasound-guided gallbladder drainage (EUS-GBD) or percutaneous transhepatic gallbladder drainage (PTGBD) for acute cholecystitis in NTT Tokyo Medical Center. We surveyed 35 patients as the EUS-GBD group and 11 patients as the PTGBD group, and compared the rate of technical success of the cholecystectomy and periprocedural adverse events. A 7-F, 10-cm double pigtail plastic stent was used for ultrasound-guided gallbladder drainage. Results: The rate of technical success of cholecystectomy was 100% in both groups. Regarding postsurgical adverse events, no significant difference was noted between the two groups (EUS-GBD group, 11.4%, vs. PTGBD group, 9.0%; p = 0.472). Conclusions: EUS-GBD as a BTS seems to be an alternative for patients with AC because it can ensure lower adverse events. On the other hand, there are two major limitations in this study--the sample size is small and there is a risk of selection bias.
