Abstract:
Objective To compare the efficacy of stents 7 F and 10 F in drainage of pancreatic pseudocyst via EUS-FNA.Methods A retrospective analysis of patients with pancreatic pseudocyst who received endoscopic ultrasonography guided puncture drainage by using 7 F and 10 F double pigtail plastic stent respectively in Drum Tower Hospital of Nanjing University Medical School from 2010 to 2014 was conducted.Patients' hospitalization period, the time for 50% cyst reduction, removal time, infection rate, and recurrence rate were compared.Results Twenty three patients with pancreatic pseudocyst were included, among whom 14 were male and 9 were female.The age ranged from 13 to 70 with an average of 45.1 years.Eleven patients were treated with 7 F pigtail plastic stents whereas 12 patients with 10 F pigtail plastic stents.All patients were treated with additional 8.5 F joint nose cyst drainage.Four cases in 7 F group got fever, 3 of whom were successful in anti-infection and 1 failed, having to change the stent.One case (9.1%) relapsed without symptoms after 52 months during the follow-up and received no intervention.Five cases in 10 F group got fever, 4 of whom were successful in anti-infection and 1 failed, having to change the stent.One case (8.3%) was identified as mild hemorrhage, and replantation needed to be performed in 1 case (8.3%) because stent was found to slip after 12 days.Two cases (16.7%) relapsed without symptoms after 11 and 24 months respectively and no intervention was received.There was no significant difference in patients' age, cyst size, removal time, infection rate and recurrence rate between the two groups.However, patients in group 10 F had a markedly shorter hospitalization period and time for cyst reduction by at least 50% than those in group 7 F (P < 0.05).Conclusion 10 F double pigtail plastic stents can drain the cyst faster, shorten the hospital stay, but there is no significant difference in infection or recurrence rate of cyst compared with 7 F stents.
