Laparoscopic cystogastrostomy for pancreatic pseudocyst is safe and effective.

Between March 1997 and March 1998, three consecutive patients underwent laparoscopic cystogastrostomy for persistent giant retrogastric pancreatic pseudocyst complicating an attack of acute pancreatitis. The mean cyst diameter was 15 +/- 1 cm (range 14-16). The procedure was performed with four trocars. The anterior wall of the stomach was opened longitudinally. The pseudocyst was entered through the posterior wall of the stomach. A cystogastrostomy was created by suturing the margins of the communication by interrupted nonabsorbable sutures. The mean operative time was 123 +/- 15 min, and there were no postoperative complications. The mean postoperative hospital stay was 4 +/- 1 days. Computed tomography demonstrated complete resolution of the pseudocyst. Laparoscopic cystogastrostomy represents a good therapeutic option for persistent retrogastric pancreatic pseudocyst.
