Laparoscopic Transgastric Sutured Cystogastrostomy for Post-traumatic Pancreatic Pseudocyst in a Low Resource Setting: Case Report and Literature Review.
West African Journal of Medicine 2019 January
Pancreatic pseudocyst (PPC) complicating blunt and penetrating abdominal injury is well documented in paediatric age groups. In adults, PPC is often one of the sequelae of acute pancreatitis rather than trauma. Blunt abdominal trauma accounts for most documented cases of post-traumatic PPC. To the best of our knowledge, PPC following penetrating abdominal gunshot injury is a rare event. Laparoscopic drainage of PPC is fast gaining acceptance as the procedure of choice amongst experts as it offers many advantages and benefits of minimal access surgery to the patient. We report our experience and challenges with our first case of laparoscopic cystogastrostomy for a large post-traumatic PPC in a 24-yearold man who was diagnosed 8 months after laparotomy for a penetrating thoraco-abdominal gunshot wound. We also conduct a review of the literature on laparoscopic management of Pancreatic pseudocyst.
