Walled off pancreatic necrosis is a complication of acute pancreatitis that usually occurs more than 4 weeks after acute pancreatitis.[1]
Treatment
Options include[2]:
- Lumen-apposing metal stents (LUMS)[3]
- open surgical necrosectomy
- minimally invasive surgical necrosectomy
- percutaneous catheter drainage
- endoscopic transgastric/transluminal drainage
- direct endoscopic transgastric/transluminal necrosectomy
- nasocystic drainage
A randomized controlled trial is underway to compare transluminal endoscopic step-up approach versus minimally invasive surgical step-up approach.[4]
