Summary

The best management of the acute cholecystitis is to do laparoscopic cholecystectomy. The hypothesis is that to do it as an early intervention after patient admission is better than delayed cholecystectomy regarding the hospital stay, interval for antibiotic, the easiness of the operative maneuver reflected by operative time, conversion and intraoperative complications.
