1030 OUTCOMES OF A STRUCTURED APPROACH TO ENDOSCOPIC MANAGEMENT OF PANCREATIC FLUID COLLECTIONS IN THE ERA OF LUMEN-APPOSING METAL STENTS

Although relatively recent, due to ease of deployment and large diameter that facilitates better drainage, lumen-apposing metal stents (LAMS) are being increasingly used in lieu of plastic stents for EUS-guided drainage of pancreatic fluid collections (PFC). However, the endoscopic management strategy for treatment of PFCs in the era of LAMS has not been optimized. To evaluate a structured approach to endoscopic management of PFCs with the...
