ABSTRACT
Pancreatic pseudocysts were complicated in 10-27% of acute pancreatitis and 11-41% of chronic pancreatitis. Asymptomatic pseudocysts require no treatment, but symptomatic pseudocysts should be decompressed. Surgical management had been the traditional approach to treating pancreatic pseudocysts. Endoscopic transpapillary or transduodenal cystoenterostomy were recently suggested as an alternative to surgery in order to avoid surgical complications. The success rates of endoscopic treatment was 65-94%, procedure related morbidity was 6-21% and mortality was 0-5%. We reported two cases of patients with pancreatic pseudocysts which were treated with endoscopic cystogastrostomy and proceeded to drain through stent and ENPD catheter.
