Risk Factors Associated With Gangrenous Cholecystitis: A Cohort Study From Eastern India
The study highlighted various demographic, clinical, and imaging factors linked to a high risk of developing GC, including older age, male gender, elevated laboratory markers (such as WBC count, SBIL, SGOT, SGPT, and ALP), and imaging features like GB calculi, increased GB wall thickness, wall symmetry, intraluminal membrane, and pericholecystic collection. Employing a comprehensive approach that incorporates demographic, clinical, and imaging data is essential for predicting and guiding treatment decisions effectively.
