Objective:To investigate the value of fast track surgery (FTS) applied in emergency cholecystectomy of old patients.
Methods:To compared the effect of  FTS and traditional methods in the treatment of old patients who were treated with emergency cholecystectomy in our hospital, and to observe gut function, hospitalization time, C-reactive protein, procalcitonin and postoperative complications of the two groups.
Results:All the patients were cured without abdominal complications. In  traditional therapy group,  level of C-reactive protein and procalcitonin was higher, and return time of gut function and hospitalization time was longer, compared with that in FTS therapy group, while the postoperative complications of the two groups showed no difference.
Conclusions:Fast track surgery is effective in emergency cholecystectomy of old patients, which can reduce the stress, shorten hospitalization time, and promote the recovery of patients.
