Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Adult (> 18 yo) patients
  • With symptomatic walled- off pancreatic necrosis in which an endoscopic approach is appropriate based on cross-sectional imaging
  • Must have solid necrotic material present in their pancreatic fluid collection as determined by MRI, EUS, or direct transluminal endoscopic imaging of the collection

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Previous intervention for pancreatic necrosis (surgical, percutaneous, or endoscopic)
  • Indication for emergency laparotomy (compartment syndrome, bowel ischemia, bleeding, or perforation of a GI lumen)
  • Uncorrectable coagulopathy.

Design Details

  • Primary Purpose: Treatment
  • Allocation: Randomized
  • Interventional Model: Parallel Assignment
  • Masking: None (Open Label)

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Other: Greater than 50% Necrosis
Subjects who have greater than 50% necrosis as determined by MRI, Endoscopic Ultrasound (EUS), or direct transluminal endoscopic imaging of the collection. This stratification group will be randomized to either the double pigtail plastic stent or the AXIOS metal stent.
Patients will be stratified into two arms (Greater than 50% necrosis or less than 50% necrosis), then will be randomized to either the double pigtail plastic stent or AXIOS metal stent
Patients will be stratified into two arms (Greater than 50% necrosis or less than 50% necrosis), then will be randomized to either the double pigtail plastic stent or AXIOS metal stent
Other Names:
  • LC-SEMS
  • Large caliber- self-expanding metal stent
Other: Less than 50% Necrosis
Subjects who have less than 50% necrosis as determined by MRI, Endoscopic Ultrasound (EUS), or direct transluminal endoscopic imaging of the collection. This stratification group will be randomized to either the double pigtail plastic stent or the AXIOS metal stent.
Patients will be stratified into two arms (Greater than 50% necrosis or less than 50% necrosis), then will be randomized to either the double pigtail plastic stent or AXIOS metal stent
