Endoscopic management of pancreatic walled-off necrosis. [PDF]
Pancreatic walled-off necrosis (WON) is a complication of severe pancreatitis. Endoscopic transmural drainage has been recognized as the first-line treatment for pancreatic fluid collections. Endoscopy offers a minimally invasive approach when compared to surgical drainage.

Walled-off pancreatic necrosis. [PDF]
Acute severe pancreatitits may be complicated by the development of 'walled-off pancreatic necrosis' (WOPN), which is characterised by a mixture of solid components and fluids on imaging studies as a consequence of organised pancreatic tissue necrosis.

Walled-off pancreatic necrosis
Walled-off pancreatic necrosis (WOPN), formerly known as pancreatic abscess is a late complication of acute pancreatitis. It can be lethal, even though it is rare. This critical review provides an overview of the continually expanding knowledge about WOPN, by review of current data from references identified in Medline and PubMed, to September 2009 ...

Endoscopic Transmural Necrosectomy for Walled-Off Pancreatic Necrosis: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Endoscopic transmural necrosectomy (ETN) is emerging as a viable treatment option for walled-off pancreatic necrosis. This NOTES-type procedure is significantly less invasive than an extensive surgical debridement; however, published data ...

Spontaneous fistulization of walled‐off pancreatic necrosis into the colon [PDF]
Spontaneous fistulization of the pancreatic necrosis into the colon is rare. It should be kept as differentials in the presence of massive air in the WOPN.

Primary squamous cell carcinoma of pancreas mimicking walled-off pancreatic necrosis
Pancreatic carcinoma is a dreaded diagnosis due to its poor prognosis. Squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) of the pancreas is a rare histological variety of pancreatic carcinoma. Its diagnosis is based on ruling out other site of tumor origin.

Spontaneous intra-gastric rupture of walled-off pancreatic necrosis: Endoscopic ultrasound features
Walled-off necrosis (WON) is a delayed local complication of acute pancreatitis. It is usually associated with acute necrotizing pancreatitis. It requires drainage if it is infected, associated with gastric or biliary obstruction or is painful ...

Fungal Infections in Patients With Walled-off Pancreatic Necrosis
This study aimed to evaluate the influence of fungal infection and antifungal treatment on outcome in patients with walled-off pancreatic necrosis (WON).A retrospective description of fungal infections in a cohort of consecutive patients undergoing endoscopic, transmural drainage and necrosectomy for WON, treated in a tertiary referral center was ...

Endoscopic therapies for walled-off necrosis. [PDF]
Management of walled-off necrosis (WON) has focused on a step-up approach using minimally invasive drainage and debridement techniques. This document reviews the technical aspects of endoscopic management of WON, technical and clinical success, adverse event rates for endoscopic drainage, and dedicated endoscopic devices for direct endoscopic ...
