Short- and long-term results of endoscopic ultrasound-guided transmural drainage for pancreatic pseudocysts and walled-off necrosis

Figure 1 Kaplan-Meier curve comparing no recurrence rate of amylase in cavity ≥ 63100 with that of amylase in cavity < 63100.

Figure 2 Representative case of walled-off necrosis resolved by endoscopic ultrasound-guided transmural drainage alone. A: Computed tomography of the abdomen (axial image) showing less than 50% pancreatic parenchymal necrosis; B: Pancreatic fluid collection was 135 mm in diameter; C: Rich debris seemed to exist in the cavity as shown by endoscopic ultrasound; D: Endoscopic ultrasound guided transmural drainage was performed and pancreatic fluid collection culture was positive; E: Cavity was reduced at 6 wk after intervention.
