Role of ultrasonographically guided fine-needle aspiration cytology in the diagnosis of infected pancreatic necrosis

Abstract: Ultrasonographically guided FNAC is a fast and reliable technique for the diagnosis of infected necrosis. As complication rates are very low, the procedure can be repeated at short intervals to improve the diagnostic accuracy. Ultrasonographically guided FNAC is recommended for all patients with necrotizing pancreatitis in whom systemic inflammatory response syndrome persists beyond the first week after onset of symptoms.

“…However, the extent of necrosis may not be as important in the morbidity and mortality of necrotizing pancreatitis as was once thought. While some series have shown a correlation between extent of necrosis and prevalence of organ failure (66,69,148,161), others have not (50,83,111); similarly, while some series have shown a correlation between the extent of necrosis and the prevalence of infected necrosis (117,161,175), others have not (83,91,111); while one recent study has shown a correlation of extent of necrosis with mortality (161), others have not (83,128,138).…”

“…In the presence of infection, the prognosis worsens considerably [101, 115 -118]. Infected collections may be sampled by EUS-guided fine needle aspiration (EUS-FNA) to obtain microbial analysis, which guides antibiotic treatment [119,120]. With a sterile collection, luminal or biliary extrinsic compression and persistent severe abdominal pain are indications for drainage [100,121,122].…”
