Successful Treatment of a 38-Year-Old Patient Suffering from Necrotizing Pancreatitis
The medical team at Al-Mouwasat Hospital in Al-Khobar successfully ended the suffering of a 38-year-old man who was transferred from another hospital in the Eastern Province. The patient was suffering from severe necrotizing pancreatitis caused by gallstones. After examination and the necessary tests, it was found that there was a large cyst on the pancreas causing pressure on the stomach and severe inflammation.
Upon review by a multidisciplinary team, the Gastrointestinal Endoscopy Team at Al-Mouwasat Hospital in Al-Khobar decided to place a metal stent between the stomach and the pancreatic cyst to drain the inflammation. This procedure was performed using an advanced technique called the Hot Axios Stent. This cutting-edge method allows for the stent to be placed with greater precision and safety, avoiding the need for extensive and prolonged surgeries.
The patient recovered well, and the cyst shrank, which is expected to facilitate the near-term recovery of the pancreas.
It is noteworthy that this type of procedure relies on advanced medical technology and highly trained medical staff, which aligns with Al-Mouwasat Medical Services Company's vision of attracting top talent in specialized fields and utilizing the latest advanced medical techniques and equipment.
