Endoscopic Step-up Approach for Walled-off Necrosis After Acute Pancreatitis. [PDF]
ABSTRACT This review outlines current interventional strategies for treating symptomatic walled‐off necrosis (WON) after necrotizing pancreatitis. Mortality from acute pancreatitis has improved, but late mortality, particularly from infected necrosis, remains a challenge. WON requires invasive treatment in cases of infection or symptoms.

Endoscopic Versus Surgical Management for Infected Necrotizing Pancreatitis and Walled-Off Necrosis: A Systematic Review of Randomized Controlled Trials [PDF]
Background and Objectives: Infected necrotizing pancreatitis and walled-off necrosis are associated with substantial morbidity and mortality. The evolution from open necrosectomy to minimally invasive and endoscopic strategies has improved outcomes, yet ...

Hydrogen Peroxide Flushes for Necrotizing Pancreatitis in a High-Risk Surgical Patient: A Pathway for Durable Response Without Additional Endoscopic Intervention [PDF]
Necrotizing pancreatitis (NP) is characterized by severe pancreatic inflammation with necrosis and a systemic inflammatory response. We describe the case of a 32-year-old female with NP successfully treated with a modified protocol using hydrogen ...

Extended Open Transgastric Necrosectomy (EOTN) as a Safer Procedure for Necrotizing Pancreatitis [PDF]
The treatment of infected necrotizing pancreatitis has evolved from time to time and the success of surgical intervention depends on the timing of necrosectomy. Bacterial infection occurs in 40–70% of patients with necrotizing pancreatitis. Infection is
