LIMAS-SOLANO, Luis Manuel  e  BARRETO-NORATTO., Clara Patricia. Giant pancreatic pseudocyst drainage by endoscopic cystogastrostomy: Case report. Rev. colomb. Gastroenterol. [online]. 2022, vol.37, n.2, pp.210-213.  Epub 25-Ago-2022. ISSN 0120-9957.  https://doi.org/10.22516/25007440.734.

Introduction:

The pancreatic pseudocyst is one of the late local complications of acute pancreatitis. For managing a giant pancreatic pseudocyst, there are multiple strategies.

Aim:

To present the case of a patient with a giant pancreatic pseudocyst managed by endoscopic cystogastrostomy.

Clinical case:

A 41-year-old woman developed a giant pancreatic pseudocyst as a complication of acute pancreatitis that was managed by endoscopic cystogastrostomy without endoscopic ultrasound guidance, with good evolution.

Conclusions:

Endoscopic cystogastrostomy, with or without the help of ultrasound endoscopy or lumen-apposing metal stent (LAMS), is a viable, safe, effective, and economical therapeutic option for selected patients with a giant pancreatic pseudocyst.
