Outcomes of early versus delayed laparoscopic cholecystectomy for acute cholecystitis performed at a single institution

Debate continues regarding the clinical outcomes of early laparoscopic cholecystectomy (ELC) versus delayed laparoscopic cholecystectomy (DLC) for acute cholecystitis (AC). The aim of this retrospective study was to compare clinical outcomes of ELC and DLC.
