Surgical Opening for Pancreatic Cyst Drainage

In this procedure, the provider creates a surgical opening between a cyst in the pancreas and the gastrointestinal tract, usually the small intestine, in a Y shaped configuration, to provide a method for internal drainage of the contents of the cyst. This reduces pain from an enlarging cystic mass and prevents complications such as internal bleeding due to rupture of the cyst. Choose a location to see hospital-reported price summaries.
