LESH is a safe, feasible and minimally invasive approach and has no different impact on stress responses compared to LH. It may be a reasonable alternative to apply in clinical practice by experienced laparoscopic physicians.
Pancreatic duct stent-ing is a safe and effective procedure that may afford sufficient PD decompression to reverse the process of ABP, show better outcomes as compared to no-stent group. It is recommended to reduce the incidence of the complication in the emergency ERCP of ABP but difficult sphincterotomy. However, further prospective trials are needed.
Although preliminary, the findings in this study do not currently support the assumption that NOTES is less invasive than laparoscopy. Further research is required to confirm these findings.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
