Pancreatic pseudocyst treated by laparoscopic Roux-en-Y cystojejunostomy

Abstract

tional surgical approaches to this problem are discussed. A technique for laparoscopic repair of a Morgagni hernia is described. The literature on the laparoscopic repair of a Morgagni hernia is reviewed and different operative techniques are discussed.

Laparoscopic and endoscopic approaches for drainage of pancreatic pseudocysts: a systematic review of published series

“…Although a Roux-en-Y jejunal loop is the ideal approach for cyst-jejunostomy [11,12], some surgeons apply a simple loop [13]. The PP is located and its fluid content sampled by needle puncture.…”

Laparoscopic Roux-en-Y pancreatic cyst-jejunostomy

“…In addition, higher rates of recurrence have also been observed with the cyst-gastrostomy [9]. Johnson et al also noted that the complication rate with cyst-gastrostomies increased with increasing size of the pseudocyst [11].…”

“…To date only a few isolated case reports of laparoscopic cyst-jejunostomy have appeared in the literature [2,5,9]. These reports have essentially centered on creating a proximal loop cyst-jejunostomy.…”

“…Few case reports have appeared in the literature demonstrating the technique and feasibility of laparoscopic cystjejunostomy in the management of pancreatic pseudocysts [2,5,9]. We report our experience, technique, and results with eight consecutive cases of pancreatic pseudocysts treated by laparoscopic Roux-en-Y cyst-jejunostomy.…”

Acute biliary pancreatitis, endoscopy, and laparoscopy

“…Laparoscopic pancreatic cystogastrostomy [14] or cystojejunostomy [25] are alternatives to the nonsurgical techniques for organized necrotic collections [47,49]. Laparoscopic drainage is becoming more popular because it allows for definitive drainage with faster patient recovery [60].…”
