BACKGROUND: Acute cholecystitis (ACC) is one of the most common diagnoses encountered in surgical wards. A number of treatment modalities are available, and various guidelines have been developed to help decision making. Many factors influence treatment strategies, including patient age and frailty. Due to the increasing proportion of older patients, consideration into the best treatment modalities for this population are warranted.
OBJECTIVES: To determine outcomes of elderly patients with ACC according to different treatment strategies.
METHODS: A retrospective analysis of consecutive patients aged ≥ 80 years who were admitted with a diagnosis of ACC between 2015 and 2019 to a single academic center. Patients were divided into three groups according to treatment: percutaneous cholecystostomy tube placement, cholecystectomy, intravenous antibiotic treatment only.
RESULTS: Overall, 466 patients were included in the cohort. The majority (approximately 75%) were treated with antibiotics only, 17% underwent percutaneous cholecystostomy, and 8% underwent laparoscopic cholecystectomy. One-year mortality was 28.1%. The highest mortality rate was 41.6% in the cholecystostomy group (P = 0.002). In multivariable analysis age, functional status, C-reactive protein, and albumin levels were found to be independent risk factors for 1-year mortality (hazard ratio [HR] 1.08, 0.56, 0.98, 0.4, respectively). Cholecystostomy increased risk of one-year mortality compared to cholecystectomy and antibiotics alone (HR 0.61, 0.23, respectively).
CONCLUSIONS: The use of cholecystostomy for ACC in older adults is an independent risk factor for 1-year mortality. Its use in older adults should be reserved for carefully selected cases.
