[The clinical value of percutaneous puncture of pancreatic cysts guided by ultrasound].
This article reported 11 cases of percutaneous puncture of pancreatic cysts guided by ultrasound. All were successfully punctured. The clinical value, indication and the procedure were discussed. Percutaneous puncture is not only valuable for diagnosis of pancreatic cyst, but also for therapy. Of ten cases treated by puncture aspiration, two cases with two cysts were followed for 2.5 years and 5.5 years respectively without recurrence of the cyst; in another case, the cyst was reduced to 62% of its original size after 4 years.
