Endoscopic ultrasound‐guided pelvic abscess drainage (with video)

Abstract: Pelvic abscesses present a serious and challenging management problem. Endoscopic ultrasound (EUS)-guided drainage provides a safe and effective minimally invasive treatment option. The likelihood of a successful outcome is dependent on appropriate patient selection, drainage technique and postoperative management. This review outlines the evidence behind and procedural steps required for EUS-guided pelvic abscess drainage.

“…Several researchers have compared outcomes in terms of success and complication rates between different drainage methods [1,9,10]. It has been recently observed a positive trend towards endoscopic ultrasound-guided drainage because of higher clinical success, lower complication rates, less mortality related to the procedure and shorter hospital stay [9][10][11][12]. However, percutaneous drainage is still the preferred intervention when compared to surgical treatment.…”

“…139,140 Postoperative leakage in the non-IBD population has been shown to be successfully managed endoscopically using endoclips, endoloops, fully covered SEMSs, and recently full-thickness closure using over-the-scope clips. 125,127,[141][142][143][144] These principles could be extrapolated to the IBD population, although further studies are needed.…”
