title: [Minimally invasive technologies in diagnosis and treatment of local purulent complications of destructive pancreatitis].
abstract: Sixty patients with local purulent complications of destructive pancreatitis were treated. Interventional procedures under visual control were performed in 38 patients: in 26 (68.4%) -- under control of computed tomography and in 12 (31.6%) -- ultrasound-assisted procedures. Traditional surgeries were performed in 22 patients. Complete recovery was seen in 23 (60,6%) of 38 patients of the first group, all these patients have solitary, one-chamber and non-sequestered purulent cavities which are formed in 82.6% cases due to microfocal pancreonecrosis. Transcutaneous drainage was ineffective in 14 (36.8%) patients that required conversion to laparotomy. It is demonstrated that treatment policy in purulent-necrotic complication of pancreonecrosis must be individual. Adequate method of local treatment must be determined by size and localization of purulent and necrotic lesions, presence of sequesters and septa.
