Abstract Background/Aims Peripancreatic fluid collections (PFCs) result from acute or
chronic pancreatic inflammation that suffers a rupture of its ducts. Currently, there exists …

Walled‐off pancreatic necrosis (WON) can develop in the late phase of necrotizing
pancreatitis. When the WON is accompanied by an infection in the necrotic bed, it becomes …

The evolution of endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) from a diagnostic to a therapeutic procedure
has resulted in a paradigm shift toward endoscopic management of disease states that …

Background Patients with walled-off necrosis (WON) are still challenging to treat safely and
effectively. Recently, double-pigtail plastic stents (DPS), bi-flanged metallic stents (BFMS) …

Background and study aims Lumen-apposing metal stents (LAMS) are increasingly used for
drainage of walled-off pancreatic necrosis (WON). Recent studies suggested greater …

Acute pancreatitis (AP) is one of the most common gastrointestinal diseases and remains a
life-threatening condition. Although AP resolves to restitutio ad integrum in approximately …

Objectives Disconnected pancreatic duct syndrome (DPDS) is the most common cause of
pancreatic fluid collection (PFC) recurrence. While long‐term transmural drainage with …

Background Comparative data on percutaneous catheter drainage (PCD) vs EUS-guided
drainage (EUS-D) for management of symptomatic walled-off-necrosis (WON), specially …

Acute necrotizing pancreatitis occurs in 10%–20% of patients with acute pancreatitis (AP)
which is one of the most important acute abdominal diseases that require hospital …
