| Core Tip |
The exact duration of antibiotic therapy for acute cholangitis in adult patients remains a controversial subject in the field of gastroenterology. A total antibiotic treatment of 4-7 d is recommended by the Tokyo Guidelines of 2018. However, recent studies present that schemata of shorter-course therapies could promise similar efficacy and safety. In our study, we systematically reviewed the existing literature in order to compare the death and recurrence rates and the length of hospitalization between patients with antibiotic treatments of shorter and longer durations. Our findings showed no significant differences between the study groups in all outcomes. |
