Pancreatic Endotherapy and Necrosectomy

Current Treatment Options in Gastroenterology, 2015
There has been a paradigm shift in the management of pancreatic necrosis from open surgical debridement of infected necrosis to minimally invasive interventional radiologic, laparoscopic, and endoscopic drainage/debridement techniques. A step-up approach from less invasive to the more invasive modalities is recommended. An important distinction to make

Endoscopic Necrosectomy in Children

Journal of Pediatric Gastroenterology and Nutrition, 2014
ABSTRACTAcute pancreatitis in children is rarely complicated by the development of necrosis. Although endoscopic transluminal necrosectomy is evolving as the standard of care in adults, its feasibility in the pediatric population has not been established.

Endoscopic Pancreatic Necrosectomy

Journal of Gastrointestinal Surgery, 2011
Traditionally, patients with symptomatic sterile pancreatic necrosis or infected necrosis have been managed by open surgical debridement and removal of necrotic tissue. Within the last decade, however, reports of endoscopic pancreatic necrosectomy, an alternative minimally invasive approach, have demonstrated high success rates and low mortality rates.

Pancreatic Necrosectomy: Definitions and Technique

Journal of Gastrointestinal Surgery, 2005
Pancreatic necrosis implies a permanent condition in which a portion of the pancreas loses its blood supply. This condition is irreversible, yet many cases of "necrosis" will, after recovery, culminate in a patient with a normal pancreas by computed tomography or endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography. The problem is in our definitions.

Laparoscopic necrosectomy for acute necrotizing pancreatitis

Journal of Hepato-Biliary-Pancreatic Surgery, 2001
Severe acute pancreatitis (SAP), a disease state that is often complicated by an intricate pathologic process, has remained difficult to manage and is associated with high morbidity and mortality rates. Approximately 80% of patients have a mild form of the disease, while the other 20% develop a severe life-threatening form of the disease.
