Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the safety and feasibility of early operation for acute calculous cholecystitis with elevated liver enzymes.Methods:The clinical data concerned about 39 patients with acute calculous cholecystitis complicated with elevated liver enzymes in The First Department of General Surgery, The First Affiliated Hospital of Anhui University of Science and Technology between January 2018 to December 2018 were analyzed retrospectively.There were 14 males and 25 females, the age was(57.59±15.30) years(range 29 to 84 years). All patients were given hepatoprotective therapy and antibiotic therapy, A total of 18 patients received early surgical treatment within 7 days (surgical group), 21 patients who received only hepatoprotective therapy and antibiotic therapy(control group). Observation indicators: (1)Total bilirubin, white blood cells and pancreatin in both groups at admission; (2)Data of liver enzyme indexes (ALT, AST, GGT) of the two groups at admission and 3 days after admission; (3)The length of hospital stay in the two groups, and gallstone-related events after discharge(the incidence of gallstone-related emergency, the rehospitalization rate). Normally distributed measurement data were expressed as mean±standard deviation( ± s), and comparison between groups were analyzed using t test; Non-normal distribution measurement data were represented by M( Q1, Q3), and comparison between groups were analyzed using Mann-Whitney U test. Comparison between groups were analyzed using chi-square test or Fisher method of count data. Results:There was no statistical difference between the two groups in terms of total bilirubin, white blood cells and pancreatin( P>0.05). There was no significant difference in liver enzyme indexes (ALT, AST, GGT) between the two groups when they were admitted to the hospital ( P>0.05) and 3 days later ( P>0.05). Before treatment, ALT、AST、GGT in surgical group were 161.00(83.75, 237.75) U/L, 63.50(49.50, 257.75) U/L, 245.50(66.75, 549.75) μmol/L, ALT, AST, GGT in control group were 187.00(64.00, 335.50) U/L, 104.00(53.50, 355.00) U/L, 299.00(136.50, 455.00) μmol/L, after 3 days antibiotic therapy and hepatoprotective therapy, ALT, AST, GGT in surgical group were 77.50(52.00, 111.00) U/L, 41.50(33.00, 53.75) U/L, 190.50(65.00, 372.00) μmol/L, ALT, AST, GGT in control group were 67.00(23.50, 129.50) U/L, 37.00(26.00, 61.50) U/L, 187.00(90.50, 337.00) μmol/L, levels of the two groups decreased significantly( P<0.05). There was no statistically significant difference in the length of hospital stay between the surgical group and the control group[(12.89±3.41) d vs (11.05±4.57) d, P>0.05]. After 12 months of follow-up, Gallstone-related events after discharge, the incidence of gallstone-related emergency in the surgical group was lower than that in the control group (5.6% vs 33.3%), the rehospitalization rate in the surgical group was significantly lower than that in the control group (5.6% vs 42.9%), there was statistically significant difference between the two groups ( P<0.05). Conclusion:Hepatoprotective therapy and antibiotic therapy and can effectively reduce the liver enzyme indexes of such patients in a short period of time, early surgical treatment after liver enzymes has decreased is a complete and safe option.
