Description

Milton Muñoz-Leija and colleagues study gallbladder disease after surgery delays during the COVID-19 pandemic, in work published in 2024. Many hospitals deferred elective operations when the pandemic grew. The team asked how patients looked when postponed gallbladder surgery finally took place.

The retrospective study covered five hundred twenty patients whose scheduled cholecystectomy had been canceled. Gallstones were the most common diagnosis, found in about three quarters of cases. Grade three on the Parkland Grading Scale was most common, at close to forty-four percent. That grade sits one level above pre pandemic reports. Differences by sex and by emergency versus elective surgery were also clear, as was hospital stay length.
