Percutaneous cholecystostomy is used to reduce the complications and mortality associated with surgery in patients with high surgical risk in acute cholecystitis. Although this method generally acts as a bridge treatment for interval cholecystectomy in patients, interval cholecystectomy is not performed in every patient after percutaneous cholecystostomy. The aim of this study was to determine the recurrence rate of patients who did not have interval cholecystectomy after treatment with percutaneous cholecystostomy and to investigate the factors that may affect the recurrence.
