Acute and Chronic Cholecystitis
New England Journal of Medicine, 1955THREE hundred and forty-two patients with a preoperative diagnosis of cholecystitis were operated on at the Boston City Hospital from January 1, 1951, to January 1, 1953. The records of 13 cases were not available for study; therefore, 96.2 per cent of the records of the entire group have been reviewed. The series comprised 99 cases with a preoperative

Cholescintigraphy in acute and chronic cholecystitis
Seminars in Nuclear Medicine, 1982Since the introduction of technetium-99m-labeled cholescintigraphic agents in the mid-1970s, there has been extensive investigation of their role in the evaluation of biliary tract disorders. These agents accurately assess the patency of the cystic and common bile ducts, and to date, their greatest impact has been on the diagnostic evaluation of ...

Surgery for Acute and Chronic Cholecystitis
Surgical Clinics of North America, 1990Cholecystostomy and cholecystectomy remain appropriate and effective therapy for acute and chronic cholecystitis. Cholecystectomy is the gold standard against which all alternative methods of treatment of inflammatory biliary stone disease should be judged. The pathogenesis, diagnosis, and surgical treatment of acute and chronic cholecystitis have been
