Non-programmed rehospitalizations after cholecystectomy

Résumé fourni par la source

Cholecystectomy is one the most frequent procedures in digestive surgery. While the operation is generally associated with low rates of morbidity and mortality, frequency of occurrence can vary considerably according to surgical indication, time elapsed between symptom appearance and surgical intervention, anatomical area under treatment, and the experience of the different centers. Rehospitalization after cholecystectomy remains potentially problematic in numerous units, due in part to the ongoing development of day hospital treatment and short-term hospitalization. The objective of this update is to assess not only the rate, causes and risk factors of non-programmed hospitalizations subsequent to cholecystectomy, but also the available ways and means of prevention and management in the patient's best interests.
