External fistula internalization - Endoscopic ultrasound guided stent implantation between stomach and fistula in the treatment of refractory pancreatic cutaneous fistula.

Pancreatic cutaneous fistula is a complex condition, making it challenging to achieve favorable outcomes with conservative medical treatment. Surgical interventions often entail surgical risks and postoperative complications. Here, we present a case involving endoscopically guided stent placement between the stomach and the fistula. By internalizing the fistula, patients can potentially remove the external drainage tube, offering a novel endoscopic treatment approach for such cases.
