Description

The Atlanta Classification was revised in 2012 and established four key terms, acute peripancreatic fluid collection (APFC), acute necrotic collection (ANC), pancreatic pseudocyst (PPC), and walled-off necrosis (WON), as local complications in patients with severe acute pancreatitis. According to the new classification, surgical interventions including drainage and necrosectomy, should be clearly differentiated. In this decade, minimally invasive interventions, such as percutaneous drainage and necrosectomy, laparoscopic necrosectomy, and retroperitoneal necrosectomy, have been introduced. The indications and details of the technique for these minimally invasive interventions should be discussed to establish a worldwide consensus.<br>
