Endoscopic necrosectomy � when the gastroenterologist faces his greatest nightmare...
A 69-year-old woman with severe acute necrotizing pancreatitis underwent a CT-scan, which revealed a peripancreatic collection near the pancreatic body/tail, with heterogeneous content and gas inside, suggestive of an infected walled-off-pancreatic-necrosis (WOPN). The patient was proposed to WOPN transgastric endoscopic drainage. Due to persistence of
