ABSTRACT
PURPOSE:
Despite the recent increasing application of minimally invasive techniques to treat necrotizing pancreatitis, few reports on laparoscopic necrosectomy have appeared. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the role played by laparoscopic necrosectomy in treatment of necrotizing pancreatitis. We review our own experience and the relevant literature.METHODS:
All patients undergoing laparoscopic necrosectomy at Seoul National University Bundang Hospital from March 2005 to January 2016 were included in the study. Data on patient demographics, CT severity index score, American Society of Anesthesiologists' score, preoperative procedures, operative methods, operation time, estimated blood loss, postoperative complications, and length of hospital stay were retrospectively analyzed. We also performed an up-to-date review of the relevant literature.RESULTS:
Laparoscopic necrosectomy was performed on four patients with infective pancreatic necrosis that was inadequately treated by percutaneous drainage. A transgastrocolic, transmesocolic, or retrocolic approach was used. The median time from diagnosis to operation was 57 days (range, 34~109 days) and the median operation time 203 min (range, 180~255 min). There was no operative mortality. The necrotic tissue was successfully removed in a single operation in three of the four patients. Three patients experienced postoperative complications, including pleural effusion and recurrence of necrosis. The median postoperative hospital stay was 39 days (range, 16~99 days).CONCLUSION:
Laparoscopic necrosectomy is safe and effective when used to treat necrotizing pancreatitis. Such treatment is especially useful for patients with solid, necrotic pancreatic components that are not removed by percutaneous or endoscopic drainage.
