AbstractPancreatic fistula is usually a complication of acute and chronic pancreatitis but can also occur postoperatively or after abdominal trauma. Conservative treatment of pancreatic fistula is time-consuming and often fails. Endoscopic treatment has become the preferred first-line treatment in many centres. Surgery is necessary in few cases when endoscopy fails or is not technically possible.
