Impact of continuous local lavage on pancreatic juice-related postoperative complications: Three case reports

Figure 4 We replaced the drain passing almost through the abscess cavity (yellow area) with a two-way tube. Saline was continuously injected through the irrigation route (blue arrow), and this two-way tube followed the drainage route (white arrow). To effectively lavage the intractable pancreatic fistula and abscess cavity, the tip position of this tube was appropriately adjusted during fluoroscopic examination. CA: Celiac artery; CHA: Common hepatic artery; GDA: Gastroduodenal artery; LGA: Left gastric artery; PHA: Proper hepatic artery; PV: Portal vein; SA: Splenic artery; SMA: Superior mesenteric artery; SMV: Superior mesenteric vein; SV: Splenic vein.
