Summary

Acute cholecystitis is the most common acute complication of gallstone disease. Although there are diverging opinions about optimal timing for surgery, the general recommendation is that surgery is performed as soon as possible after admission when the diagnosis is established. The study will compare acute cholecystectomies for acute cholecystitis performed during weekends with procedures where patient have been waiting during weekend and surgery performed during a subsequent weekday.

Hypothesis: Performing acute cholecystectomies for acute cholecystitis during weekends are associated with higher risk for complications.
