Endoscopic Ultrasound-Guided Drainage of Pancreatic Fluid Collections (with Video)
نویسنده
چکیده
Endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) is often used to guide drainage of pancreatic fluid collections (PFCs). EUS enhances the diagnosis of cystic pancreatic lesions and enables real-time image-guided control of PFC drainage. EUS may facilitate the endoscopic treatment of patients with pancreatic necrosis and patients with disconnected pancreatic duct syndrome.

متن کاملEndoscopic ultrasound-guided transesophageal drainage of a mediastinal pancreatic pseudocyst using a novel lumen-apposing metal stent.
There have been a few previous reports of transesophageal endoscopic ultrasound (EUS)-guided drainage of pancreatic fluid collections (PFC). In these reports the drainage modality has been a single aspiration or deployment of a plastic stent [1–4]. We report a patient who underwent transesophageal EUS-guided drainage of a mediastinal PFC using a novel lumen-apposing metal stent. A 37-year-old m...
