简要总结
Patients with pancreatitis can develop inflammatory fluid collection around the pancreas called pseudocysts. Pseudocysts may cause abdominal pain when they are more than 6cm in size. These pseudocysts can be treated (drained) by surgery or by endoscopy. Both treatment options are the current standard-of-care at all institutions around the World. The aim of this study is to identify the better of the two techniques, surgery versus endoscopy, for treatment of patients with pancreatic pseudocysts. This will be done by comparing a) the rates of pseudocyst recurrence b) quality of life of patients following treatment and c) cost associated with treatment, between both treatment modalities.
详细描述
The purpose of this study is to examine endoscopic ultrasound guided celiac plexus neurolysis (CPN) with analgesic therapy in patients with unresectable pancreatic cancer will decrease the severity of abdominal pain when compared to analgesic therapy alone. The specific primary aim of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of EUS-CPN + analgesic therapy (Group 1) in pain relief of patients with unresectable pancreatic cancer when compared with analgesic therapy (Group 2). The hypothesis will be tested by comparing the changes in reported pain severity between those who receive EUS-CPN in addition to analgesic therapy as compared to analgesic therapy alone.
