Therapeutic pancreatic endoscopy offers a minimally invasive approach for treating benign pancreatic disorders like pancreatitis and pseudocysts. This cost-effective method provides an alternative to surgery, managing various pancreatic conditions effectively.

Area of Science:

  • Gastroenterology
  • Endoscopy
  • Pancreatology

Background:

  • Therapeutic endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) is established for biliary disorders.
  • Minimally invasive therapies are increasingly demanded.
  • Pancreatic endoscopy represents an expansion of therapeutic ERCP.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review the current state of therapeutic pancreatic endoscopy.
  • To highlight endoscopic management of benign pancreatic disorders.

Main Methods:

  • Review of current literature on therapeutic pancreatic endoscopy.
  • Summary of endoscopic techniques for pancreatic conditions.

Main Results:

  • Endoscopic treatment of benign pancreatic disorders is a cost-effective alternative.
