Filter by:The purpose of this study is to characterize organ dysfunction change in acute necrotizing pancreatitis patients with sepsis after open necrosectomy.
Although metal stents have been widely used in the endoscopic step-up approach for necrotizing pancreatitis, the exact timing of transmural stent removal has not been well studied. In this prospective, open-label, randomized controlled study, we recruited and enrolled consecutive patients with necrotizing pancreatitis undergoing endoscopic transmural necrosectomy. Eligible participants were randomly assigned to case group (a novel strategy in which the stents were removed during the last necrosectomy when the necrosectomy endpoint was achieved) and control group (the conventional strategy in which the stents were removed after the last necrosectomy when clinical symptoms were relieved and fluid was nearly completely resolved confirmed by imaging). The primary endpoint was the incidence of composite complications within three months of enrollment.
