Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy Versus Percutaneous Cholecystostomy: Suitability of APACHE-II Score, ASA Grade, and Tokyo Guidelines 18 Grade as Predictors of Outcome in Patients With Acute Cholecystitis
Intervention options in acute cholecystitis (AC) include drainage (percutaneous/endoscopic) or surgery. Several scoring systems have been used to risk stratify acute surgical patients, but few have been validated. This study investigated the suitability of Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation II (APACHE-II) score, American Society of Anesthesiologist (ASA) grade, and Tokyo Guidelines 2018 (TG18) grade as predictors of outcome and assess laparoscopic cholecystectomy versus percutaneous cholecystostomy (PC) as treatment options in patients with AC.Retrospective data was collected from patients that underwent acute inpatient cholecystectomy (index admission), urgent interval cholecystectomy (2 to 4 wk) and PC between 2016 and 2018. Data included baseline demographics, co-morbidities, ASA grade, APACHE-II score, TG18 grade, morbidity, and mortality. A P-value of0.05 was statistically significant. Area under the receiver operating characteristic curve was calculated to compare accuracy of APACHE-II, ASA and TG18 in predicting morbidity.A total of 344 consecutive patients (266 cholecystectomies and 84 PC) were included in the study. Significant difference in co-morbidities [median Charlson Co-Morbidity Index (CCI) 1 surgery and 4 cholecystostomy (PC) (P0.05)], median APACHE-II score (3 surgery and 9 PC), median TG18 grade (1 surgery and 2 PC) and mortality rate [0% surgery and 7% cholecystostomy (PC)]. TG18 grade alone predicted postoperative/postprocedure morbidity (receiver operating characteristic; AUC=0.884; 95% confidence interval: 0.845-0.923; odds ratio: 4.38, 96% confidence interval, P0.05).Utilization of the TG18 grade have shown to be more accurate in risk stratifying and predicting outcomes in patients with AC and therefore may appropriately guide biliary intervention.PC can be utilized in a select group of septic and co-morbid patients (myocardial infarction6 weeks, chest infection and acute cerebrovascular accident) unable to withstand surgical intervention or in those with complex biliary disease (Mirizzi Syndrome). In a proportion, PC drains sepsis to improve critical state of the patient enough to consider an interval cholecystectomy with satisfactory outcomes.
