ABSTRACT
The appearance of acute cholecystitis can make to complicate a natural history of cholelitiasis or post-operating time of patients that have concomitant predisposition factors. The best therapy is the cholecystectomy but somewhere for the critical general conditions is too much dangerous to make a surgical procedure. However we need to stabilize patients conditions, also for a short time. Our experience suggest us that percutaneous transhepatic cholecystostomy is a simple method without any complications, efficacious to resolve the acute sepsis in patients with cholecystitis that not be able to tolerate a surgical procedure.
