Acute pancreatitis is frequently complicated by pancreatic fluid collections (PFCs). PFCs usually resolve spontaneously but some can mature forming large cysts filled with fluid or necrotic debris. Historically they have been treated with surgical removal but with the advancement of endoscopic procedures, endoscopic drainage has risen to be a safe first-line treatment of PFCs. Furthermore, the development of plastic stents and lumen apposing metal stents (LAMS) has replaced not only the open surgery but also the percutaneous drainage due to smaller number of adverse events. Especially the LAMS has gained favor recently as large metaanalysis suggests their advantages over plastic stents in the treatment of PFCs, however, the data about their use in the drainage of PFCs is still scarce.
