Multidisciplinary Approach to the Treatment of Acute Calculous Cholecystitis in the Post-Covid Period: Reasons for Changing Tactics and the Scope of Surgical Procedures Performed

During the COVID-19 pandemic, the delivery of emergency and elective surgical procedures has been fundamentally changed. Everyone knows that conservative treatment, percutaneous drainage of the gallbladder and cholecystectomy are widely used to treat patients with acute calculous cholecystitis. However, the question of the most effective tactics for treating acute cholecystitis in the early post-Covid period remains poorly understood. It follows that, at this time, it is important to analyze the data on the use of percutaneous and transhepatic drainage of the gallbladder, determine the optimal time for cholecystectomy in acute calculous cholecystitis and compare the effectiveness of “early” and “delayed” cholecystectomy. The purpose of the work improve thetreatment algorithm, develop a new tactical approach and evaluate the results of treatment of patients with acute calculous cholecystitis in the early post-Covid period
