The Impact of Cholecystectomy on Long-Term Disease Outcomes and Quality of Life in Patients with Crohn’s Disease
Abstract
Cholecystectomy (CCY) is one of the most frequently performed abdominal surgeries. However, the impact of CCY in clinical settings with altered gastrointestinal physiology and anatomy, such as Crohn’s disease (CD), has not been fully characterized. We sought to investigate clinical outcomes, disease severity, and quality of life of CD patients after CCY.
