Description
Acute cholecystitis is a common inflammatory condition of the gallbladder, primarily associated with gallstones. Complications such as bile duct injury and bile leakage can occur following cholecystectomy, significantly impacting morbidity and mortality. Early diagnosis and intervention are essential to improve patient outcomes, with treatment options including endoscopic sphincterotomy and stenting. However, percutaneous coil embolization has emerged as a critical intervention due to the anatomical complexity of the region.
