Summary

Endoscopic ultrasound (EUS)-guided transluminal drainage has become a first-line treatment modality for symptomatic pancreatic pseudocysts. Despite the increasing popularity of lumen-apposing metal stents (LAMSs), the use of a LAMS is limited by its high costs and specific adverse events compared to plastic stent placement. To date, there has been a paucity of data on the appropriate stent type in this setting. This trial aims to assess the non-inferiority of plastic stents to a LAMS for the initial EUS-guided drainage of pseudocysts.

Conditions

  • Pancreatic Fluid Collection
  • Pancreatitis
  • Pancreatic Pseudocyst

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Plastic stent

EUS-guided drainage will be conducted under endosonographic and fluoroscopic guidance within 72 hours of the randomisation. A linear echoendoscope will be advanced to the stomach or duodenum with moderate sedation, and the targeted pseudocyst will be visualised and punctured under endosonographic guidance. In cases with an insufficient improvement in inflammatory indicators (i.e., body temperature, white blood cell count, and C-reactive protein), the investigators will perform additional interventions including the addition of or replacement with a plastic stent or LAMS and/or percutaneous drainage if needed. In the plastic stent group, two (at least one) 7-Fr double pigtail stents will be placed. Following EUS-guided puncture of a pseudocyst, a guidewire will be coiled within the lesion, and another guidewire will be inserted alongside the prepositioned guidewire. The puncture tract will be dilated if needed.

PROCEDURE

LAMS

EUS-guided drainage will be conducted under endosonographic and fluoroscopic guidance within 72 hours of the randomisation. A linear echoendoscope will be advanced to the stomach or duodenum with moderate sedation, and the targeted pseudocyst will be visualised and punctured under endosonographic guidance. In cases with an insufficient improvement in inflammatory indicators (i.e., body temperature, white blood cell count, and C-reactive protein), the investigators will perform additional interventions including the addition of or replacement with a plastic stent or LAMS and/or percutaneous drainage if needed. In the LAMS group, a LAMS with electrocautery enhanced delivery will be placed (Hot AXIOS; Boston Scientific Japan, Tokyo, Japan). A guidewire or dilator will be used if needed.
