This study compares two ways of dealing with a swollen, inflamed gallbladder when surgery can't be done right away. It looks at whether just removing fluid with a needle (aspiration) is as good as placing a drain tube to keep fluid out over a few days.
This study compares different ways to manage sudden gallbladder inflammation (cholecystitis) in patients who are moderately or severely ill, to see which treatments lead to better recovery. It helps doctors learn the best approach for your situation.
This study compares two ways to drain the gallbladder without removing it: using an endoscope (a thin tube) versus a non-endoscopic method. It is for people with gallbladder problems who are either too sick for surgery or want to avoid removing their gallbladder.
This study compares two ways to drain an infected gallbladder when surgery is too risky: one using a needle through the skin (percutaneous drainage) and another using a tube placed through the mouth and stomach with an ultrasound (EUS-guided drainage). The goal is to see which approach is safer and more effective for patients who are not good candidates for surgery.
This study looks at the best time to remove the gallbladder in people who have had a severe bout of pancreatitis caused by gallstones. It aims to see if removing the gallbladder earlier or later after recovery helps patients heal better.
This trial compares removing the gallbladder early (within a few days) versus waiting several weeks after a drainage tube is placed. It aims to find the best timing for surgery in people with moderate to severe gallbladder inflammation.
