| Core Tip |
Walled-off necrosis (WON) remains difficult to endoscopically manage because of insufficient drainage of solid necrotic tissues. Here, we present a case of successful drainage of a huge WON via a modified single transluminal gateway transcystic multiple drainage technique. After placing a wide-caliber covered metal stent, follow-up computed tomography revealed an undrained subcavity of WON. A large fistula created by the metal stent enabled the insertion of an upper endoscope directly into the main cavity, and the narrow connection route within the main cavity to the subcavity was identified with a direct view, leading to the successful drainage of the subcavity. |
