Endoscopic Transpapillary Gallbladder Drainage for Acute Cholecystitis.
Zain A SobaniChristina LingTarun RustagiPublished in: Digestive diseases and sciences (2020)
The mainstay of management of acute cholecystitis has been surgical, with percutaneous gallbladder drainage in patients deemed high risk for surgical intervention. Endoscopic management of acute cholecytitis with transpapillary and transmural drainage of the gall bladder is emerging as a viable alternative in high-risk surgical patients. In this article, we discuss the background, current status, technical challenges and strategies to overcome them, adverse events, and outcomes of endoscopic transpapillary gallbladder drainage for management of acute cholecystitis.
