Abstract:

Objective

To investigate the impact of different surgical timing and procedures on the prognosis of elderly patients with extrahepatic bile duct stones complicated by moderate acute biliary tract infection.

Methods

A total of 133 elderly patients with extrahepatic bile duct stones and acute biliary tract infection admitted to Dongtai People's Hospital from 2023 to 2024 were enrolled. Based on surgical timing, they were divided into an early group (undergoing emergency surgery within 48 hours of admission, n=73) and a late group (undergoing surgery at 72-96 hours post-admission, n=60). Each group was further subdivided according to surgical procedure: laparoscopic common bile duct exploration (LCBDE) stone extraction and endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) combined with endoscopic sphincterotomy (EST) stone extraction. Surgical success rates and postoperative complications were compared. T test and analysis of variance were used for the comparison between measurement data, and chi-square test was used for the comparison between counting data.

Results

The late group demonstrated a significantly higher surgical success rate (96.67% vs 80.82%, χ2=7.813, P < 0.05). Postoperative complications (pancreatitis, sepsis) were significantly lower in the late group (3.33% vs 16.44%, 3.33% vs 13.70%, χ2=6.005 and 4.310, respectively; P < 0.05). The ERCP+EST subgroup in the late group had a significantly higher success rate than the early ERCP+EST subgroup (96.88% vs 79.17%, χ2=5.077, P < 0.05).

Conclusion

For elderly patients with extrahepatic bile duct stones and moderate biliary infection, delayed surgery at 72~96 hours post-admission reduces complication rates. Surgical approach (LCBDE vs ERCP+EST) does not significantly affect success rates.
