Abstract

Pseudocysts of pancreas is collection of fluid in the lesser sac enclosed by a wall of fibrous or granulation tissue as a consequence of acute pancreatitis, pancreatic trauma or chronic pancreatitis. Invasive drainage procedures are currently indicated in those patients with symptoms or complications. We present our experience of 26 cases of pseudocyst of pancreas managed laparoscopically between Nov-2014 to March-2016 using different techniques of anastomosis using Vicryl 2-0 continues sutures as well as using Titanium clips for creating stoma between anterior wall of pancreatic pseudocyst and posterior wall of stomach. Laparoscopic cysto-gastrostomy appears to be safe and effective approach for internal drainage of pancreatic pseudocyst. It also facilitates the debridement of the necrotic tissue from the cyst cavity. Use of Titanium clips can be an alternative to conventional sutured cystogastrostomy and stapled cystogastrostomy, as it is less time consuming, easy to perform and cost effective.
