The Role of Endotherapy in Recurrent Acute Pancreatitis.
Gastrointestinal Endoscopy Clinics of North America 2018 October
Patients with recurrent acute pancreatitis (RAP) have few treatment options available to them to manage their symptoms or prevent progression to chronic pancreatitis. At present, endotherapy is typically pursued as a means to achieve symptom remission and reduce rates of recurrence, hospitalization, abdominal pain, narcotic use, and surgical intervention. However, evidence that endotherapy effectively alters the natural history of disease remains limited. This article reviews the recent literature on the efficacy of endoscopic intervention in the treatment RAP with a focus on high-quality prospective randomized controlled studies. Additional studies are needed to corroborate these findings.
