Abstract:
Objective To analyze the clinical characteristics, treatments and prognosis of acute obstructive suppurative pancreatic ductitis ( AOSPD) , and to discuss its pathogenesis, diagnosis and treatment strategy. Methods 63 AOSPD cases reported in Chinese and foreign literature from June 1993 to January 2019 were collected. The sex, age of onset, etiology and potential risk factors, clinical manifestations, laboratory examinations, imaging findings, treatments and prognosis were recorded. Results The male to female ratio was 53 / 10, and the median age of onset was 59 years. The etiology and risk factors included chronic pancreatitis, pancreatic neoplasms, diabetes mellitus, history of endoscopic intervention and alcoholism before the onset of AOSPD. The main clinical manifestations were epigastric pain and fever, and sepsis and shock might occur in a few cases. The serum amylase was 13-1946 ( IU/L) at the early stage of onset and it decreased to varying degrees after treatments. Imaging examination showed that pancreatic duct dilatation was found in 54 patients and pancreatic duct stones were found in 42 patients. Pancreatic juice culture was bacteria-positive in more than 31 cases, and the common pathogenic bacteria were Enterococcus and Escherichia coli. Therapeutic methods included endoscopic pancreatic stent implantation ( n=36 ) , endoscopic nasopancreatic drainage (n=22), surgical operation (n=4) and antibiotic treatment, and the condictions in most of the patients were improved to some extent after treatments. Conclusions Older age, male, chronic pancreatic disease, history of endoscopic intervention and drinking, and diabetes mellitus were the main etiological factors of AOSPD. The clinical manifestations of AOSPD were nonspecific but could be complicated by severe complications. Imaging examination and pancreatic juice culture can help to confirm the diagnosis. Antibiotic therapy, timely endoscopic interventions and surgical procedures can improve the short-term prognosis.
