Objective To explore the comparison of the timing of laparoscopic cholecystectomy for acute calculous cholecystitis. Methods A total of 140 patients admitted from January 2024 to January 2025 were selected for the study. They were divided into a control group and an experimental group according to the timing of surgery, with 70 cases in each group. The onset time of the control group was 72 hours or less; the onset time of the experimental group was more than 72 hours. The operation time, intraoperative bleeding volume, conversion to laparotomy rate, intraoperative bleeding volume, postoperative hospitalization time and complication rate of the two groups of patients were analyzed. Results After the two groups of patients were provided with different treatment plans, there were differences in the operation time, intraoperative bleeding volume, conversion to laparotomy rate, postoperative hospitalization time and complication rate between the two groups of patients, p<0.05. Conclusion For patients with acute calculous cholecystitis, laparoscopic cholecystectomy in the early stage can effectively shorten the operation time, reduce the amount of bleeding during the operation, reduce the chance of conversion to laparotomy, and reduce the occurrence of complications.
