Registry of Endoscopic Ultrasound (EUS) Evaluation and Management of Pancreatic Fluid Collections and Pancreatic Cysts
Registry of Endoscopic Ultrasound (EUS) Evaluation and Management of Pancreatic Fluid Collections and Pancreatic Cysts
This registry aims to assess the outcomes of patients undergoing EUS-guided interventions of pancreatic fluid collections and EUS examination of pancreatic cyst lesions.
For pancreatic fluid collections, data included in this registry are 292 variables on patient demographics (age, gender, race), symptoms at presentation, severity of disease prior to intervention, indications for undergoing endoscopic intervention, details of the pancreatic fluid collections on cross-sectional imaging and EUS, review of laboratory results, review of imaging, details of interventions performed for pancreatic fluid collections, clinical details following intervention, adverse events from interventions and pancreatitis/pancreatic fluid collections, interventions for any adverse events, response to treatment of pancreatic fluid collections including any hospital readmissions, recurrence of pancreatic fluid collections, need for repeat interventions for pancreatic fluid collections, details of pancreatic duct integrity such as the presence of disconnected pancreatic duct syndrome, and clinical status at follow-up.
For pancreatic cysts, data included in this registry are 60 variables on patient demographics (age, gender, race), symptoms at presentation, imaging modality performed to detect the cyst, features of the cyst on EUS, features of the main pancreatic duct on EUS, technical details of EUS-guided sampling of the cystic fluid, results of cyst fluid analysis including cytology, tumor markers, amylase levels, molecular markers, final diagnosis of the cyst on follow-up, details of any follow up evaluation performed, details of repeat examinations performed and details of any treatment performed for the pancreatic cyst.
Inclusion Criteria:
1. All patients aged 18 years or over, who are undergoing EUS evaluation of a pancreatic cyst lesion or endoscopy-based (EUS-guided) interventions for pancreatic fluid collection at the Center for Interventional Endoscopy will be included in this registry.
