[PMID: 38012699 PMCID: PMC10683177 DOI: 10.1186/s12893-023-02269-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/11/2023] [Accepted: 11/14/2023] [Indexed: 11/29/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND We sought to evaluate the effect of early short-term abdominal paracentesis drainage (APD) in moderately severe and severe acute pancreatitis (MSAP/SAP) with pelvic ascites. METHODS A total of 135 MSAP/SAP patients with early pelvic ascites were divided into the Short-term APD group (57 patients) and the Non-APD group (78 patients). The effects, complications, and prognosis of short-term APD patients were evaluated. RESULTS The baseline characteristics in the two groups were similar. The target days of intra-abdominal hypertension relief, half-dose enteral nutrition, duration of mechanical ventilation, length of intensive care unit stay (in days) and total hospitalization (also in days) were all lower in the Short-term APD group than in the Non-APD group (P = 0.002, 0.009, 0.004, 0.006 and 0.019), while the white blood cell count and serum C-reaction protein level decreased significantly more quickly (P < 0.01 and P < 0.05), and the prevalence of intra-abdominal infection was also significantly lower (P = 0.014) in the former than the latter. No complications occurred in early APD patients, and the microbial cultures of pelvic ascites were all negative. In addition, patients with early APD presented fewer cases of residual wall-off necrosis or fluid collection (P = 0.008) at discharge and had a lower incidence of rehospitalization and percutaneous catheter drainage and/or necrosectomy (P = 0.017 and 0.009). CONCLUSIONS For MSAP/SAP patients with pelvic ascites, the early short-term APD is feasible and safe to perform, and it can decrease clinical symptoms, reduce intra-abdominal infection and shorten the hospital stay. It may also reduce the incidence of rehospitalization and surgical intervention.

Early vs. late percutaneous catheter drainage of acute necrotic collections in patients with necrotizing pancreatitis. Abdom Radiol (NY) 2023; 48:2415-2424.

Abstract
PURPOSE It is recommended to drain the pancreatic fluid collections later in the course of the acute necrotizing pancreatitis (ANP). However, earlier drainage may be indicated. We compared early (≤ 2 weeks) vs. late (3rd to 4th week) percutaneous catheter drainage (PCD) of acute necrotic collections (ANC). MATERIALS AND METHODS This retrospective study comprised ANP patients who underwent PCD of ANC. The diagnosis of ANP was based on revised Atlanta classification criteria and computed tomography performed between 5 and 7 days of illness. Patients were divided into two groups [1st 2 weeks (group I) and 3rd-4th weeks (group II)] based on the interval between the onset of pain and insertion of catheter. The technical success, clinical success, complications, and clinical outcomes were compared between the two groups. RESULTS One hundred forty-eight patients (74 in each group) were evaluated. The procedures were technically successful in all patients. The clinical success rate was 67.6% in group I vs. 77% in group II (p = 0.069). The incidence of complications was significantly higher in group I (n = 12, 16%) than group II (n = 4, 5.4%) (p = 0.034). These included 15 minor (11 in group I and 4 in group II) and one major complication (group I). Of the clinical outcomes, the need for surgery was significantly higher in group I than in group II (13 patients vs. 5 patients, p = 0.031). CONCLUSION Early PCD is as technically successful as late PCD in the management of ANC. However, early PCD is associated with higher surgical rate and higher incidence of complications.

Abstract
Objectives Percutaneous catheter drainage (PCD) is usually performed to treat acute pancreatitis complicated by infected walled-off necrosis (WON). Insufficient drainage of infected WON may lead to a prolonged recovery process. Here, we introduce a modified PCD strategy that uses the triple guidance of choledochoscopy, ultrasonography, and computed tomography (CUC-PCD) to improve the therapeutic efficiency. Methods This study retrospectively analysed 73 patients with acute pancreatitis-related WON from January 2015 to January 2021. The first 38 patients were treated by ultrasonography/computed tomography-guided PCD (UC-PCD), and the next consecutive 35 patients by CUC-PCD. Perioperative data, procedural technical information, treatment outcomes, and follow-up data were collected. Results Demographic characteristics were statistically comparable between the two treatment groups (p > 0.05). After 48 h of PCD treatment, the CUC-PCD group achieved a significantly smaller size of the infected WON (p = 0.023), lower inflammatory response indexes (p = 0.020 for white blood cells, and p = 0.031 for C-reactive protein), and severity scores than the UC-PCD group (p < 0.05). Less catheter duration (p = 0.001), hospitalisation duration (p = 0.000), and global costs (p = 0.000) were observed in the CUC-PCD group compared to the UC-PCD group. There were no differences between the two groups regarding the rate of complications. Conclusions CUC-PCD is a safe and efficient approach with potential clinical applicability for treating infected WON owing to its feasibility in placing the drainage catheter at the optimal location in real time and performing primary necrosectomy without sinus tract formation and enlargement.
