| Core Tip |
While early laparoscopic cholecystectomy remains the gold standard, critically ill patients with perforated cholecystitis may benefit from minimally invasive strategies such as percutaneous transhepatic cholecystostomy or endoscopic ultrasound-guided gallbladder drainage, as bridging or definitive therapy. However, more evidence is needed concerning which subgroup of patients benefit from those non-surgical modalities. |
