Endoscopic Ultrasound-Guided Gallbladder Drainage Versus Percutaneous Transhepatic Gallbladder Drainage for Acute Cholecystitis with High Surgical Risk: An Up-to-Date Meta-Analysis and Systematic Review
Study compared EUSGBD with percutaneous transhepatic gallbladder drainage (PTGBD) for acute cholecystitis with high surgical risk. EUS GBD was associated with less reintervention and readmission. With lumen-apposing metal stents (LAMS), E USGBD was linked to fewer adverse events. Technical success with PTGBD, however, was higher than that with EusGBD.
