Abstract:
Recently, transmural naso-cyst continuous irrigation (TNCCI) has been reported as an effective and safe treatment for walled-off necrosis (WON). We herein report a case of bilocular WON that was successfully treated with TNCCI. The patient was a 60-year-old man. The patient underwent endoscopic ultrasound-guided cyst drainage of the main cavity and subcavity using a single transluminal gateway transcystic multiple drainage technique, which was ineffective. Subsequently, a lumen-apposing metal stent (LAMS) was placed in the main cavity and TNCCI was successfully performed in the subcavity. TNCCI with LAMS was effective in treating bilocular WON.
