Current evidence suggests that PCD may have less favorable outcomes than LC, but also that LC-associated complications increase in direct relation to patient age. There is no recommendation supported by robust evidence to decide between one or the other procedure in super elderly patients.<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec><jats:sec>\n                <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                <jats:p>A retrospective observational cohort study was designed to analyze the surgical outcomes of super elderly patients with cholecystitis who underwent LC versus PCD for treatment.

The median age of patients were 92 years (IQR: 4.00) with a female predominance (58.33%). The overall morbidity rate in the series was 36.45% and mortality rate was 7.29%.
