Gallbladder removal, [[cholecystectomy]], can be accomplished by the open surgery or a [[laparoscopic]] procedure. Laparoscopic cholecystectomy is the operation of choice in uncomplicated calculous cholecystitis. Open cholecystectomy may be performed in complicated cases or when trained/skilled personal for laparoscopic procedure is not available. Supportive measures are instituted in the meantime to prepare the patient for surgery. These measures include fluid resuscitation and [[antibiotic]]s. Antibiotic regimens usually consist of a broad spectrum [[cephalosporin]] such as [[ceftriaxone]] and an antibacterial with good cover against [[anaerobic organism|anaerobic bacteria]], such as [[metronidazole]].

For most patients, in most centres, the definitive treatment is surgical removal of the gallbladder. Supportive measures are instituted in the meantime and to prepare the patient for surgery. These measures include fluid resuscitation and [[antibiotic]]s. Antibiotic regimens usually consist of a broad spectrum [[cephalosporin]] such as [[ceftriaxone]] and an antibacterial with good cover against [[anaerobic organism|anaerobic bacteria]], such as [[metronidazole]]. 


Gallbladder removal, [[cholecystectomy]], can be accomplished via open surgery or a [[laparoscopic]] procedure. Laparoscopic procedures can have less [[morbidity]] and a shorter recovery stay.  Open procedures are usually done if complications have developed or the patient has had prior surgery to the area, making laparoscopic surgery technically difficult. A laparoscopic procedure may also be 'converted' to an open procedure during the operation if the surgeon feels that further attempts at laparoscopic removal might harm the patient. Open procedure may also be done if the surgeon does not know how to perform a laparoscopic cholesystectomy.

In cases of severe inflammation, shock, or if the patient has higher risk for general anesthesia (required for [[cholecystectomy]]), the managing physician may elect to have an [[interventional radiology|interventional radiologist]] insert a [[percutaneous]] drainage catheter into the gallbladder ('percutaneous cholecystostomy tube') and treat the patient with antibiotics until the acute inflammation resolves.  The patient may later warrant [[cholecystectomy]] if their condition improves.
===Laparoscopic cholecystectomy===
Laparoscopic cholecystectomy is a minimally invasive surgical procedure and has various indications in addition to the chronic cholecystitis.

Laparoscopic cholecystectomy is the operation of choice in uncomplicated calculous cholecystitis. Open cholecystectomy may be performed in complicated cases or when trained/skilled personal for laparoscopic procedure is not available. Supportive measures are instituted in the meantime to prepare the patient for surgery. These measures include fluid resuscitation and antibiotics.

Laparoscopic cholecystectomy

Laparoscopic cholecystectomy is a minimally invasive surgical procedure and has various indications in addition to the chronic cholecystitis. There are two main types of procedures used for the laparoscopic cholecystectomy ; Single-incision laparoscopic cholecystectomy (SILC) and conventional multiport laparoscopic cholecystectomy (CMLC).[3][4][5][6]

  • Single-incision laparoscopic cholecystectomy (SILC)
    • As compared to CMLC, SILC has the following features:
      • Improved cosmetic results
      • Decreased postoperative pain
      • Increased operative time
      • Increased intraoperative blood loss
  • Conventional multiport laparoscopic cholecystectomy (CMLC)
    • As compared to SILC, CMLC has the following features:
      • Decreased operative time
      • Decreased intra-operative blood loss

The major complications associated with the cholecystectomy are:[7]

Percutaneous cholecystostomy

Percutaneous cholecystostomy (PC) is an alternative to emergency cholecystectomy in complicated cases of high-risk patients.[8][9][10]
