What is Effectiveness of Early Endoscopic Ultrasound-guided Drainage for Postoperative Fluid Collection about?
Background Postoperative abdominal fluid collections (PAFCs) are a potentially fatal complication of pancreatobiliary surgery. Endoscopic ultrasound (EUS)-guided drainage has recently been shown to be effective in treating PAFCs of more than 4 weeks old. Little is currently known, however, regarding the EUS-guided drainage of PAFCs of less than 4 weeks. This study assessed the efficacy and safety of the early drainage (< 4 weeks) of PAFCs via EUS guidance. Methods The data of patients who had undergone EUS-guided PAFC drainage between July 2008 and January 2018 were retrospectively analyzed. Data of EUS-guided PAFC drainage were obtained from prospectively collected EUS database of our institute and reviewed of patients' clinical parameters based on electrical medical record. Results A total of 48 patients who had undergone EUS-guided PAFC drainage within 4 weeks of pancreatobiliary surgery were enrolled. The indications of procedure included abdominal pain (n = 27), fever (n = 18), leukocytosis (n = 2), and increased size of PAFC during external tube drainage (n = 1). Technical success was achieved in all cases, and the clinical success rate was 95.8% (46/48). Four patients underw
