Is the presence of a catheter and time of surgery effective in conversion to open surgery in interval cholecystectomies after percutaneous drainage in acute cholecystitis?
In patients who underwent interval laparoscopic cholecystectomy after insertion of a percutaneous drainage catheter in acute cholecystitis, the presence of a catheter and the waiting time for surgery after catheter insertion do not affect the rates of conversion to open surgery and complications.
