Abstract
Abstract A better understanding of the disease pathophysiology, improved imaging modalities, and the development of minimally invasive interventions led to the revision of the Atlanta classification and new terminologies for the pancreatic fluid collections (PFCs) occurring in acute pancreatitis. Peripancreatic necrosis (PPN) or extra-pancreatic necrosis (EPN) has been reported as a distinct morphological entity with a better outcome than combined pancreatic and peripancreatic necrosis as well as pancreatic parenchymal necrosis alone and slightly worse than acute interstitial pancreatitis. In this news and views, we discuss a study that compared the morphological features and outcomes of endoscopic drainage of walled off necrotic collections developing after EPN alone with those developing after PN with or without EPN.

The Journal of Digestive Endoscopy (JDE) is the official publication of the Society of Gastrointestinal Endoscopy of India that has over 1500 members. The society comprises of several key clinicians in this field from different parts of the country and has key international speakers in its advisory board. JDE is a double-blinded peer-reviewed, print and online journal publishing quarterly. It focuses on original investigations, reviews, case reports and clinical images as well as key investigations including but not limited to cholangiopancreatography, fluoroscopy, capsule endoscopy etc.
