Objective: observe the prevalence of metabolic syndrome in patients with cholecystitis and analyze the relation with its severity. Materials and Methods: cross-sectional study in female patients with acute cholecystitis. Divided into two groups: group I - patients with acute cholecystitis without any other complication and, group II - patients with acute cholecystitis with any complication as: mucocele, empyema, choledocolithiasis, cholangitis, biliary pancreatitis, necrosis and, perforation. Variables measured were: weight, body mass index, waist, blood pressure, blood glucose and lipids levels, type 2 diabetes, arterial hypertension, dyslipidemia, and metabolic syndrome. Results: of 204 patients studied, 80 (39,2%) patients were complicated. There were statistical differences between groups in waist (98,9 cm vs 103,4 cm; p=0,04), patients with risk tryglicerides level (≥150 mg/dL) (41,9% vs 75%; p=0,001), and presence of metabolic syndrome (46,8% vs 67,5%; p=0,004). However, when adjusted logistic regression were realized, just risk tryglicerides level (≥150 mg/dL) were found as real risk factor (OR 4,058, IC 95% 1,870-8,807; p=0,000) for complicated cholecystitis group. Conclusion: neither metabolic syndrome nor waist circumference appear as risk factors for complicated cholecystitis, however, if the patients present tryglicerides level ≥150 mg/dL, the risk for complication increases significantly.
