Abstract:
Objective:To compare the efficacy of endoscopy and surgery in chronic pancreatitis.Methods:CNKI, CBM, Wanfang, PubMed, Cochrane Library, Embase and Web of Science were searched to compared endoscopy and surgery for the clinical efficacy of chronic pancreatitis. Literatures were searched from the establishment of the database to August 14, 2022. Compared pain relief, clinical response to initial treatment, complications, endocrine/exocrine insufficiency, length of hospital stay and mean number of procedures between the two groups. Manager 5.4.1 software was used for data analysis. Odds ratio ( OR) or weighted mean difference ( WMD) was calculated with 95% confidence interval (95% CI). Results:A total of seven studies were included, including three randomized controlled trials and four retrospective studies with 708 patients. There were 513 males and 195 females. Endoscopic interventions were performed in 364 patients and 344 patients underwent surgery. The results of meta-analysis showed that the total pain relief rate ( OR=0.38, 95% CI: 0.24-0.59) and the complete pain relief rate ( OR=0.47, 95% CI: 0.29-0.77), short-term (1-1.5 years) pain relief rate ( OR=0.42, 95% CI: 0.24-0.74), clinical relief rate ( OR=0.23, 95% CI: 0.10-0.55) were better than the endoscopic group, and could significantly reduce the number of reoperation ( WMD=1.64, 95% CI: 0.89-2.40), and the difference was statistically significant (all P<0.05). There were no significant differences in complications, new-onset endocrine insufficiency, new-onset exocrine insufficiency and length of hospital stay between the endoscopy group and the surgical group (all P>0.05). Conclusion:Surgical intervention is superior to endoscopic treatment in controlling pain associated with chronic pancreatitis and in clinical relief after the first treatment, and can effectively reduce the number of reoperations.
