Article Synopsis
- * The study reviewed 19 patients, predominantly experiencing hypoglycemia, with tumor locations identified in 74% of cases via CT and 88% via intraoperative ultrasound, and the most common surgical procedure was enucleation (53%).
- * The findings suggest that accurately locating insulinomas is vital for the right surgical approach, with enucleation recommended for suitable patients due to its higher success rates and lower serious morbidity, despite a higher occurrence of pancreatic fistulas.
Article Synopsis
- - This study evaluated the effectiveness and safety of endoscopic management for patients with walled-off necrosis, examining cases from February 2019 to December 2023.
- - Out of 11 patients, endoscopic management had a high technical success rate (90.9%), but only a 36.3% clinical success rate without additional interventions for larger or multi-lobulated cases.
- - Combining endoscopic management with percutaneous intervention led to successful outcomes in all cases where earlier attempts failed, demonstrating a preferable, less invasive treatment strategy while reducing the need for surgical procedures.
