[Laparoscopic drainage of a pancreatic pseudocyst: a case report].
Revista de Gastroenterología de México 2012 July
Pancreatic pseudocysts are defined as homogeneous pancreatic or peripancreatic collections that are not associated with necrotic tissue and are surrounded by granulated or fibrous tissue with no epithelium. Management has been classified as surgical (conventional and laparoscopic) and nonsurgical (endoscopic and radiologic). The aim of this report is to describe our initial experience in the management of a pancreatic pseudocyst by means of laparoscopic posterior cyst-gastrostomy anastomosis, performed at the Pancreas Clinic of the Hospital General "Dr. Manuel Gea González" in Mexico City. New techniques and instrumentation have contributed to the relatively recent development of laparoscopic pancreatic surgery. Our technique has practical advantages that have been confirmed by other authors, such as simple hemostasis, a wide viewing angle enabling adequate necrosectomy, anastomosis that does not require the use of staples, and the possibility of resolving other associated intra-abdominal pathologies, as in this case.
