Abstract

The COVID pandemic resulted in a surge of critically ill patients to New York hospitals. COVID is associated with a systemic inflammatory response that can result in abnormal laboratory parameters and imaging findings of cholestasis, making the diagnosis and treatment of cholecystitis difficult Given the shift to nonsurgical approaches for patients with COVID, interventional radiology (IR) became even more critical in the management of these patients. We report the percutaneous cholecystostomy experience of the largest hospital system in New York during the height of the COVID pandemic.
