Pancreatic Pseudocyst, Surgical Procedures Outcomes: Overview

Abstract: A search was conducted through following databases, PubMed/MedLine, and Embase for relavant articles published in English language and involving only human subjects, up to December 2016. Searching through evidence was performed using MeSH terms as following: “pancreatic pseudocyst, pseudocyst drainage, cystogastrostomy, cystojejunostomy, transmural pseudocyst drainage, transpapillary pseudocyst drainage and percutaneous pseudocyst drainage”. Reference lists from eligible trials were searched for more evidence to be included and useful in our review. The aim of the current review paper was to evaluate the outcomes different surgical procedures for managing Pancreatic pseudocyst, however comparatives studies on different techniques were involved in this article. Pancreatic pseudocysts are a common issue of chronic and acute pancreatitis. They are diagnosed with imaging studies. Pancreatic pseudocysts are generally handled by open surgical internal drainage. With continued improvements in medical technology, making uses of percutaneous, laparoscopic and endoscopic drain were significantly reported. Endoscopic pseudocyst drain has a high success rate and a low complication rate. Percutaneous drainage is primarily utilized for the first aid of contaminated pancreatic pseudocysts. Open internal drainage and pseudocyst resection are surgical methods with high success rates. Keywords: Pancreatic Pseudocyst, Surgical Procedures.
