Endoscopic Treatment of Pancreatic Diseases
Milan Kujundžić
Sažetak
Along with drug and surgical therapy, endoscopic
techniques are increasingly used in the treatment of
pancreatic diseases. For some pancreatic diseases, it is a
therapeutic method of choice, and for some, however, an auxiliary
method followed by a surgical therapy. Endoscopic therapy
is used in pancreatic diseases having repercussions on the
pancreas itself, but also in those pancreatic diseases that lead
to biliary tree stenosis with consequent icterus and cholestasis.
Endoscopic placement of stent in such cases enables the use of
other forms of treatment or it represents a permanent solution.
In addition to the therapy of pancreatic diseases, endoscopic
techniques also play a very signifi cant role in their diagnosis.
