摘要
Background and Aim Endoscopic ultrasonography‐guided pancreatic ductal intervention ( EUS ‐ PDI ) serves as a rescue therapy in patients with failure of retrograde access to the pancreatic duct ( PD ) at the time of endoscopic retrograde pancreatography ( ERP ). We review our experience of this procedure. Methods This is a retrospective study of patients who underwent EUS ‐ PDI for an unsuccessful ERP and altered anatomy. Results A total of 44 (65.9% male) patients underwent EUS ‐ PDI with a mean age of 43.5 years, (range: 23–67). Transgastric rendezvous technique was carried out in 23/44 (52.3%), transgastric pancreaticogastrostomy in 18/44 (40.9%) and transduodenal pancreaticobulbostomy in 3/44 (6.8%). Overall technical and clinical success was seen in 88.6% (39/44) and 81.8% (36/44), respectively. Technical success of transgastric rendezvous was 95.6% and that of transgastric pancreaticogastrostomy was 77.8%. Two of seven patients with failure to access the PD had successfully undergone EUS ‐ PD stenting at subsequent attempt. Ten immediate adverse events (AE) were noted which included abdominal pain ( n = 4), pancreatitis ( n = 2), fever ( n = 2), minor bleeding ( n = 1), and stripping of wire ( n = 1). Delayed AE included stent blockage in 12/39 (30.8%) and spontaneous stent migration in 5/39 (12.8%) which were managed with stent exchange at follow up. The rendezvous technique was associated with fewer AE than transgastric pancreaticogastrostomy. Conclusions Endoscopic ultrasonography‐ PDI is an effective treatment modality and salvage therapy in patients with unsuccessful ERP . Technical and clinical success seen with this study is comparable to studies conducted across the world. EUS ‐ PDI needs to show cost‐effectiveness in future studies.
