title: [Treatment of acute cholecystitis].
abstract: A retrospective investigation was conducted to give an account in this paper of clinical diagnoses, intra-operative findings, and therapeutic results obtained from 453 patients who had received surgical treatment for acute cholecystitis, between 1975 and 1986. The benefits of the approach may be seen from the overall lethality which had been as low as 4.2 per cent. Conservative treatment was found to be indicated only for high-risk cases.
