Managing pancreatic fluid collections (PFCs) remains challenging, but recent developments in technology and minimally invasive endoscopic techniques have improved treatment options. These advancements offer less traumatic alternatives to surgery and more effective options than percutaneous techniques. This review will discuss the latest developments in PFC management and their incorporation into current treatment algorithms.
Managing pancreatic fluid collections (PFCs) remains a challenge for many clinicians. Recently, significant progress has been made in the therapy of PFCs, including improvements in technology and devices, as well as in the development of minimally invasive endoscopic techniques, many of which are proven less traumatic when compared with surgical options and more efficacious when compared with percutaneous techniques. This review will explore latest developments in the management of PFCs and how they incorporate into the current treatment algorithm.
