[The sequence of interventions in pancreatic cavities]

Schemes for the sequence of therapeutic interventions were worked out based on experience in the recognition of 56 pancreatic cavitations (cysts, abscesses), US-assisted diagnostic punctures, 28 external drainages of the cavities (mainly prolonged catheterization), 4 diagnostic and therapeutic transcutaneous wirsungographies. The authors also worked out recommendations for a choice of instruments for prolonged external transcutaneous drainage of pancreatic cysts and abscesses, cleansing of the cavity and its sclerosing, inoperative cystogastrostomy between a cyst and a stomach stent.
