Management ofInfected Pancreatic Necroses: An Endoscopic Approach
Todd H. Baron
Division of Gastroenterology and Hepatology, University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill, NC, USA
Pancreatic Necrosis
Pancreatic fluid collections (PFC) can occur as a complication of acute pancreatic injury (acute pancreatitis,
trauma, surgical resection or injury to the pancreas during abdominal surgery) or chronic injury (chronic pancreatitis, autoimmune pancreatitis). At the basis of this
pancreatic injury is disruption of the main pancreatic
duct and/or side branches. Acute necrotizing pancreatitis (ANP) is at the severe end of a spectrum of inflammation associated with pancreatitis, resulting in cell death.
Pancreatic necrosis is defined as nonviable pancreatic
parenchyma usually with associated peripancreatic fat
necrosis and occurs in 20–30% of all episodes of pancreatitis[1]. The resultant devitalized tissue becomes a
potential bed for infection. Approximately 30% of
patients with pancreatic necrosis develop infection of
the necrotic tissue[2]. The amount of necrotic tissue is
the strongest predictor of mortality necrotic pancreatitis. Fortunately, with early recognition and improvements in critical care most patients survive the early
phase of systemic inflammatory response syndrome
(SIRS) and many survive multisystem organ failure. Even
with aggressive intravenous fluid replacement, nutritional support, and early intervention of pancreatic
necrosis, the presence of pancreatic necrosis is associated with an overall increase in mortality as compared to
interstitial or edematous pancreatitis. The mortality rate
from sterile pancreatic necrosis is approximately 13%
and rises to 35% when infected[2].
ANP is detected radiographically on contrastenhanced CT (CECT) by the presence of non- enhancing
pancreatic parenchyma. In the first few weeks after
onset of ANP, pancreatic necrosis and/or peripancreatic fat necrosis can evolve into more organized processes that expand the initial area of necrosis. If this
process occurs prior to 4weeks after the onset of ANP
it is termed an acute necrotic collection, which is potentially amenable to endoscopic drainage. After 4weeks
from onset of ANP such collections are termed walledoff pancreatic necrosis[3]. Both of these processes contain variable amounts of fluid (pancreatic juice) and
solid debris (pancreatic and/or peripancreatic fat
necrosis). Infected necrosis refers to bacterial invasion
of necrotic pancreatic tissue and can lead to clinical
infection, sepsis, and death. Infected necrosis is rare
during the first week after onset of ANP[4,5]. Evidence
suggests no absolute correlation between the extent of
necrosis and the risk of infection and duration of symptoms. The mortality rate is substantially increased
when infection occurs and most patients will require
intervention and drainage.
Mechanical Intervention
Mechanical intervention for infected pancreatic necrosis can be surgical, percutaneous, and endoscopic.
Open surgical therapy is not considered as firstapproach[6] and has largely been replaced by minimally
invasive approaches[7,8] using flexible endoscopic, rigid
endoscopic (via percutaneous catheter sites)[9], percutaneous drain placement, and laparoscopic approaches,
alone or in combination [5]. It has been more than
25years since the first report of endoscopic drainage for
pancreatic necrosis [10]. Optimal management of
necrotizing pancreatitis requires a multidisciplinary
team including dedicated surgeons, interventional radiologists, and gastrointestinal endoscopists. Such a multidisciplinary team needs to be involved from the onset of
the disease to decide if, when, and how an intervention
needs to be performed.

Intervention in asymptomatic or minimally symptomatic patients with sterile necrosis is not indicated
regardless of size, location, and extension [11,12]. For
patients with sterile WOPN and persistent gastric outlet,
intestinal, or biliary obstruction due to mass effect, intervention may be undertaken at least 4weeks after onset of
symptoms, the timing dependent on severity. In patients
with persistent symptoms such as pain and “failure to
thrive” the form and timing of intervention is debated
and current intervention can be considered 8weeks after
onset[12].
In clinically stable patients with infected necrosis, it is
advisable to continue supportive care with antibiotic
therapy directed empirically or by culture data and delay
surgical, radiologic, or endoscopic approaches for more
than 4 weeks in order to facilitate the formation of
WOPN with liquefaction of the contents. Indeed, in a
recent landmark randomized trial of patients with
infected necrosis, there was a significant improvement in
outcome when endoscopic intervention was delayed
until patients developed WOPN[1]. Prompt drainage is
required for patients with infected necrosis and clinical
instability. In these cases, minimally invasive methods of
drainage are preferred. Distinguishing sterile from
infected necrosis can be difficult but is important as the
presence of infection alters prognosis and management.
Percutaneous fine- needle aspiration (FNA) of pancreatic
and peripancreatic collections for the detection of infection should not be routinely performed. It may postpone
interventions, give false negative results or induce secondary infection [5]. Suspicion of infection is usually
based on clinical deterioration despite medical support,
high fever with rising inflammatory markers and/or positive blood cultures. The presence of gas on imaging
studies is highly suggestive of infection, likely due to fistula, but it is only present in a minority of cases[13,14].
Infection can be confirmed by FNA or through cultures
obtained at the time of drainage, and can be used to
guide antibiotic therapy[11].
The goals of endoscopic therapy for infected WON are:
(i) drainage of fluid and removal of solid components
using a transmural approach (transgastric or transduodenal), and (ii) treatment of pancreatic ductal (PD) leaks
and/or disruptions using a transpapillary approach, in
selected patients. Theoretically, addressing pancreatic
disruptions may lead to better long-
term outcomes[15].
However, despite the relatively high incidence of ductal
disruptions in patients with WOPN, subsequent disconnected duct syndrome following endoscopic therapy is
uncommon[16]. Transpapillary endoscopic drainage as
primary therapy of WOPN is not an adequate method to
remove solid debris. Removal of solid debris is vital to any
type of intervention during transmural drainage, which
can be “mechanical,” by irrigation, or a combination.
In case of proven or suspected infected necrotizing
pancreatitis, intervention should be delayed when possible until ≥4 weeks after onset of ANP [17,18].
Endoscopic transmural access can be undertaken for
acute necrotic collections as early as 2–3weeks after the
onset of acute pancreatitis in the setting of sepsis as long
as they are deemed to be organized as determined by CT
or MRI[19–21].
Transmural Drainage
The evolution of endoscopic therapy of WOPN began as
with pseudocyst drainage using small diameter transmural tracts (8 mm) and placement of 10Fr plastic stents, in
addition to a nasocystic irrigation tube[10]. Early in the
endoscopic experience many patients required adjunctive percutaneous drains, especially to treat large paracolic gutter extensions[22]. Larger diameter transmural
dilations were then added to the irrigation approach.
Nasocystic irrigation tubes can be used for continuous
flushing with sterile fluid per 24 hours or by bolus lavage
every 3–4 hours for several days to weeks depending on
the volume of debris and patient tolerance and may avoid
the need for subsequent necrosectomy. However, they
are uncomfortable, and with the advent of largetransluminal metal stents, their use is decreasing.
Direct endoscopic necrosectomy (DEN) was introduced
by Siefert[23], and subsequently Seewald[24] as a method
to remove necrotic tissue by passing forward or sideviewing endoscopes transmurally into the collection;
baskets, grasping forceps, and snares are used to remove
solid debris[25]. Transmural placement of large diameter
covered (esophageal) SEMS or large diameter (15–20 mm)
self- expandable lumen- apposing metal stents (LAMS) can
not only avoid the need for additional endoscopic intervention by allowing egress of fluid and debris, but also
facilitate passage of endoscopes into the necrotic cavity to
perform direct necrosectomy while preventing the need
for repeated balloon dilation of the gastric or duodenal
wall to enter the cavity. Indeed, in most Western countries
a commercially available LAMS that has an electrocautery
tip and which is specifically designed for use with endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) scopes has greatly simplified the
technical aspects of the procedure [26]. Instillation of
hydrogen peroxide into the necrotic cavity may facilitate
removal of necrotic debris during DEN and reduce the
likelihood of further necrosectomies[27].
In conjunction with percutaneous drain placement,
hybrid approaches have also been described [28]. In
some patients with peripheral collections that are not
accessible from a transluminal approach, a percutaneous
drain is placed. Subsequently, a large- bore selfexpandable metal stent is placed through the
diameter

percutaneous tract to allow for direct endoscopic necrosectomy with a flexible endoscope.
A dual- modality drainage technique using CT- guided
percutaneous irrigation/drainage catheter placement is
followed directly by endoscopic transmural drainage.
The percutaneous catheter is used for irrigation, with
egress internally through the transmural tracts. This
allows avoidance of direct endoscopic necrosectomy.
Using this approach with endoscopically placed plastic
stents resulted in decreased length of hospitalization and
number of radiological and endoscopic procedures compared with either modality alone [29]. This approach
also hastened resolution, but also prevented development of external fistulae and bleeding related to percutaneous manipulations. Surprisingly, the introduction of
LAMS did not appear to offer an advantage to plastic
stents at the same institution[30].
For complex organized necrosis, a multi-
gateway
approach[31] has been described, which utilizes two or
more transmural entry approaches to permit irrigation
and improved drainage. Nasocystic irrigation enters one
site and egresses from another.
Transmural Entry Devices
Devices used to perform transmural puncture of WOPN
can be divided into cautery and non- cautery devices.
Cautery devices include standard diathermy wires
(needle knives), specialized fistulotomy devices
(Cystotome CST- 10; Cook Endoscopy, Winston- Salem,
NC, USA) and specialized stent delivery systems with
cautery incorporated (AXIOS- EC; Boston Scientific,
Marlborough, MA, USA). Non- cautery devices include
19- gauge EUS- FNA needles.
The collection is punctured transmurally using EUS
guidance to be certain of the puncture site and to avoid
vessels using Doppler. Fluid is aspirated during the procedure and sent for microbial analysis including Gram
stain and culture. The procedure can be performed with
or without fluoroscopy.
length (10 or 15
mm) LAMS (AXIOS; Boston Scientific)
with luminal diameters of 15–20 mm and electrocautery
incorporated delivery systems are now commonly used due
to ease of placement [32]. With commercially available
electrocautery- equipped LAMS delivery systems the stent
is placed in a single- step (puncture and stent deployment).
One needs to be particularly careful of proper device
deployment, particularly the final, crucial step involving
proximal flange release. Some endoscopists prefer to place
a plastic double- pigtail stent through the LAMS to prevent
occlusion due to impaction of necrotic material and contact
of the stent edge against the inner wall of the cavity.
Direct endoscopic necrosectomy (DEN) can be
performed using a standard forward- viewing endoscope
during the initial endoscopic procedure after balloon dilation of the tract (12–20 mm) or the LAMS lumen (Fig.29.1)
to its maximal diameter although placement of the LAMS
alone may be adequate to resolve WOPN (Fig.29.2). In one
study, LAMS alone allowed complete resolution of WOPN
without necrosectomy in approximately half of 136
patients [33]. Patients with collections ≥10
cm in size,
paracolic extension, or ≥30% solid debris within the collection were more likely to require additional intervention.
Some authors advocate scheduled endoscopic debridements at intervals ranging from days to weeks depending
upon inpatient or outpatient status, severity of illness,
anticipated volume of residual necrosis, and findings on
follow- up CT or MRI. Internal drains are endoscopically
removed several weeks after complete resolution of the
collection and after removal of external drains (if placed) to
prevent persistent pancreatico- cutaneous fistula. Patients
Stent Placement
Antithrombotic agents should be discontinued whenever
possible prior to transmural drainage, and certainly prior to
direct endoscopic necrosectomy. In case of severe bleeding
during the procedure which cannot be treated endoscopically, immediate assistance of an interventional radiologist
should be requested. Endoscopic drainage and necrosectomy are preferably performed with patients under deep
sedation or general anesthesia. Plastic stents are not ideally
suited to drain WOPN because of their small diameter. The
use of large- diameter fully covered self- expandable metal
stents are used instead. Specially designed biflanged short

transmural drainage are bleeding and perforation.
Bleeding after transmural drainage may be managed
supportively, endoscopically, surgically, or with angiographic embolization. If perforation occurs during
attempted transgastric drainage and is limited to the
gastric wall (does not involve the collection), it may be
successfully managed nonsurgically if a stent is not
mistakenly placed through the perforation and outside

adversely altered when compared to those patients

Minimally Invasive Debridement andLavage ofNecrotizing Pancreatitis

Introduction
The prevalence of acute pancreatitis has increased over
the decades according to the Global Burden of Disease
Study in 2017. Prevalence has increased from 3,038,787in
1990 to 6,115,833in 2017with an age standardized prevalence rate of 67.2in 1990 to 76.2 per 100,000in 2017[1].
This is an increase of 13.3% and given that approximately
20–30% of patients develop moderate to severe pancreatitis, there is a significant impact on survival and burden
on health resources[2]. The revised Atlanta criteria classifies acute pancreatitis into stages based on organ failure and local complications. If organ failure exists for
more than 48 hours then the patient has severe pancreatitis. It is this set of patients that will need intervention as
acute necrotic and peripancreatic fluid collections
develop into walled- off necrosis or pseudocysts [3].
Necrotizing pancreatitis consists of necrosis of peripancreatic tissue and of the pancreatic parenchyma and
comprises 5–10% of all cases[4]. The pathological process leads to maturing collections that afford the opportunity of specifically targeted intervention in a minimally
invasive manner. This chapter will focus on three minimally invasive techniques: minimal access retroperitoneal pancreatic necrosectomy (MARPN), single port
retroperitoneal pancreatic necrosectomy (SPRPN), and
laparoscopic approaches to necrosectomy.
Minimal Access Retroperitoneal
Pancreatic Necrosectomy
The original technique published from Liverpool in
2003gained access to the necrotic cavity using a percutaneous drain placed under CT guidance[5,6]. The optimal
retroperitoneal path is on the patient’s left flank, inferior
to the spleen, superior to the kidney and posterior to the
splenic flexure, Figs30.1 and30.2. This drain can be used
alone to evacuate liquefied necrosis and can be used as a
single strategy in 9% of patients, in modern step- up
approach strategies, and even higher in other reported
cohort studies[7,8]. The first ever attempt to perform a
MARPN was under sedation, in the operating room in a
patient who was unable to tolerate a general anesthetic.
This strategy is still possible but it is preferred to give the
patient anesthesia and muscle relaxant. Patients are
placed on the operating table in a supine position with the
patient tilted allowing the drain tract to be as horizontal
as possible. They are placed at the edge of the table with a
sandbag placed under the left- hand side of the patient for
additional positioning. The surgeon can either sit at the
patient’s left or stand and vary the table height. Under
fluoroscopic guidance a guidewire is placed through the
pigtail drain, ensuring it passes through into the cavity
with enough length to allow the drain to be removed.
After making a 1 cm skin incision, a renal dilator set is
used to dilate the track following the guidewire, ensuring
not to pass further than necessary. Once the dilatation is
complete, a 24Fr Amplatz sheath is inserted over the
guidewire and fixes the position of the track, and frequently a significant amount of pus and liquid debris
drains. A nephroscope with a wide- bore operating channel is then passed through the sheath and warm saline
irrigation commences. This allows direct visualization of
the necrotic cavity and piecemeal evacuation using laparoscopic grasping forceps, Fig.30.3. The initial procedure
does not afford significant necrosectomy as the debris is
adherent to granulating cavity walls, and removal can
lead to significant bleeding. At the end of the procedure
the wire is replaced through the sheath and then an irrigation device is placed into the cavity, over the wire at a
pre- measured distance to ensure it is not placed too

next few weeks whilst the NG tube is slowly pulled back.
A median of three procedures has been reported to
completely clear the necrotic cavity[5].
A similar technique using video- assisted debridement
was described in 2001where the patient is placed in a
similar position to MARPN [9]. A 4–5 cm incision is
made below the costal margin at the mid- axillary line
close to the percutaneous drain. Blunt dissection is performed through the muscle layers of the abdomen to
locate the percutaneous drain and enter the cavity. A
laparoscope is inserted into this cavity and a parallel laparoscopic grasper or suction device to perform the
necrosectomy under direct vision. Once the necrosectomy is performed two large- bore drains are placed,
deep and superficial with an irrigation catheter. The
fascia is closed to perform closed irrigation and the skin
can be closed or left open. This technique has been part
of regular practice in many centers and employed in
step- up trials for the management of necrotizing
pancreatitis[10].
medially. The irrigation device consists of a 28Fr chest
drain with a 10/12Fr irrigation nasogastric tube sutured
to it, Fig.30.4. The cavity is irrigated with 0.9% saline at
125 ml/h and after 1–2 weeks, the necrosis is easier to
remove with clearly demarcated cavity walls, allowing a
larger necrosectomy. Once the cavity appears clear and
granulating, the MARPN procedure can cease and a CT
scan is performed to check for cavity resolution. The irrigation rate can slowly be reduced and eventually the drain
replaced with a single NG, sutured in place, which can be
flushed if required. The patient can then be discharged
and the cavity will slowly granulate and close over the
Acute Complications
Intervention for necrotizing pancreatitis brings with it a
further set of complications adding to an already significant pancreatitis burden. There is commonly a physiological systemic inflammatory response as a contained
infected collection is released systemically and patients
can become septic. In MARPN patients, this has been
reported at 12% with multiorgan failure and with 41% of
patients requiring an ITU admission. MARPN remains
