| Core Tip |
The increase in incidence of cholecystitis in the pediatric age group parallels the global increase in childhood obesity. While the Tokyo Guidelines 2018 are widely adopted in adult surgical practice, their criteria are based on physiologic and anatomic assumptions that may not directly apply to children. This manuscript aims to contextualize pediatric acute cholecystitis as a distinct clinical entity with unique etiologies, risk factors, and outcomes. It evaluates the predictive value of obesity and hemolytic diseases and describes trends in biliary interventions such as endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography. |
