Abstract
Necrotizing pancreatitis with superinfection of necrotic tissue is associated with a high rate of complications and mortality. The step-up approach is a well-established treatment strategy for necrotizing pancreatitis, emphasizing minimally invasive and endoscopic interventions before considering surgical options. Minimally invasive strategies often involve percutaneous drainage of collections, which carries the risk of persisting cutaneous pancreatic fistulas. Since there is currently no guidance for managing this scenario, we present a novel treatment approach that utilized tissue glue to occlude a persisting and clinically compromising percutaneous fistula. In addition, we summarize the current knowledge in the treatment of percutaneous pancreatic fistulas and provide a potential therapeutic algorithm for further evaluation.
