The clinicopathologic features in 40 individuals between the ages of 13 and 20 undergoing cholecystectomy were analyzed and found to be a blend of the dissimilar patterns seen in earlier and later years. Only 4 had an associated hemolytic anemia. Females predominated in a ratio of 3.4:1, and a third were parous. Pain and right upper-quadrant tenderness

tients, such as those in the ICU, in whom clin -ical signs may be masked and imaging signs are less specific compared with the ambulant population [6]. Forty percent of patients with acute cholecystitis develop complications [7] (Table 1), including emphysematous chole-cystitis, which is seen more commonly in men and diabetic patients, with calculi ...

Emphysematous cholecystitis is an uncommon variant of acute cholecystitis, and a communication between biliary ducts and gastrointestinal tract should be evaluated. Making the diagnosis often is straightforward on plain abdominal radiography.

Emphysematous cholecystitis is a relatively rare variant of acute cholecystitis with infection by gas-producing organisms. Diagnosis involves the demonstration of gas within the lumen or wall of the gallbladder by ultrasound or CT scan. In contrast to acute cholecystitis, emphysematous cholecystitis occurs more commonly in elderly and diabetic patients,

Surgical Clinics of North America, 1988
Acute cholecystitis is a common cause of the acute abdomen. The diagnosis has been distinctly improved with the development of ultrasonography and hepatobiliary scanning over the past 20 years. The treatment is cholecystectomy, with early as opposed to delayed operation gaining increasing popularity nationwide.

Cholecystitis and Cholelithiasis
Primary Care: Clinics in Office Practice, 1988Cholelithiasis and cholecystitis, with their complications, remain major health problems in the United States. At this time, cholecystectomy is the treatment of choice for all patients with symptomatic gallstones and those with acute cholecystitis, except those who are too ill to undergo surgery. Present therapeutic options may be summarized as follows:

Patients with a diagnosis of acute cholecystitis need to be hospitalized, with surgery (ie, cholecystectomy) being the treatment of choice. While hospitalized, they should be treated with intravenous hydration and with intravenous antibiotics covering enteric organisms. They should receive nothing by mouth and may require a nasogastric tube if ileus is
