Abstract
Drainage of pseudocyst and walled-off pancreatic necrosis has traditionally been achieved by surgical means. Recently, there has been a progressive shift in paradigm to performing endoscopic drainage for these conditions. Endoscopic ultrasound (EUS)-guided drainage is the preferred approach for drainage of pancreatic pseudocyst. However, many controversies still exist on the optimal management and wide variations in techniques exist. There is a pressing need for establishment of a consensus for safe practices in EUS-guided pseudocyst drainage.
期刊介绍:
IJGII (pISSN 2636-0004, eISSN 2636-0012) was published four times a year on the last day of January, April, July, and October, which has effected from January 1 in 2019. This Journal was first published biannually on June and December, beginning in December 2012 under the title ‘Gastrointestinal Intervention’ (former pISSN 2213-1795, eISSN 2213-1809) and was changed to be published three times a year from 2016. Commencing with the January 2019 issue, the Journal was renamed ‘International Journal of Gastrointestinal Intervention’. As the official journal of the Society of Gastrointestinal Intervention (SGI), International Journal of Gastrointestinal Intervention (IJGII) delivers original, peer-reviewed articles for gastroenterologists, interventional radiologists, surgeons, gastrointestinal oncologists, nurses and technicians who need current and reliable information on the interventional treatment of gastrointestinal and hepatopancreaticobiliary diseases. Regular features also include ‘state-of-the-art’ review articles by leading authorities throughout the world. IJGII will become an international forum for the description and discussion of the various aspects of interventional radiology, endoscopy and minimally invasive surgery.
