Single Versus Dual Drainage of Walled-Off Pancreatic Necrosis
In patients receiving initial EUS drainage, the rate of step-up to DMD was 33.9%, highlighting that 2/3 of those with WOPN can be successfully managed by endoscopic means alone. Large size and pericolic extension were identified as predictors for need for step-up, and such features may be useful in identifying patients who may benefit from early dual approach.
