Metal Stents Versus Plastic Stents for the Management of Pancreatic Walled-Off Necrosis: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis

Endoscopic transluminal drainage of symptomatic walled-off necrosis (WON) is a good management option, although the optimal choice of drainage site stent is unclear. We performed a systematic review and meta-analysis to compare metal stents (MSs) and plastic stents (PSs) in terms of WON resolution, likelihood of resolution after one procedure, and adverse events.
