Cystogastrostomy Set

A cystogastrostomy set (cystogastrostomy kit) is a single-use set for endoscopic cystogastrostomy: drainage of a pancreatic pseudocyst or walled-off necrosis into the stomach or duodenum under endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) guidance. It punctures with a high frequency needle knife and dilates the tract to 8.5 or 10 French; double pigtail stents from the same portfolio keep the drainage going.

A dedicated set for endoscopic ultrasound-guided drainage of pancreatic pseudocysts and walled-off necrosis into the stomach or duodenum.

In which cases?

  • Pancreatic pseudocyst drainage, transgastric or transduodenal, under EUS guidance.
  • Walled off pancreatic necrosis, where the tract is kept open with stents.
  • Smaller working channels, where the 6 French cystotome version is advanced over a 0.035″ guidewire.

What makes it different?

  • Puncture and dilation in one device the needle knife enters and the diathermic tip on the outer catheter widens the tract, so nothing is exchanged between the two steps.
  • Two high frequency connectors in the set, one for the needle knife and one for the diathermic tip.
  • The inner catheter runs about 20 cm longer than the outer Teflon tube, so the needle reaches beyond the diathermic tip and both connectors stay outside.
  • Takes 8.5 and 10 French double pigtail stents from the same portfolio for continued drainage.

Frequently asked questions

What is cystogastrostomy?

Cystogastrostomy is the drainage of a pancreatic pseudocyst or walled-off necrosis into the stomach through a tract made for the purpose. In endoscopic cystogastrostomy the tract is made under endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) guidance: the cavity is punctured, the tract is widened and stents keep it open. When the drainage goes into the duodenum instead, it is transduodenal.

What is included in a cystogastrostomy set, and which sizes are there?

The range has three versions: a 6 French cystotome and a cysto-gastro set at 8.5 and 10 French. The cystotome is the outer tube alone. The 8.5 and the 10 French set carry two components, the outer tube with the diathermy tip and the inner catheter with the puncture needle, each packed sterile on its own with one copy of the instructions for use in the box.

What does the procedure need from the generator?

A maximum power of 300 W and a maximum high-frequency voltage of 1600 V peak, with a generator that has an Endo-Cut function. Before another generator is used its compatibility is checked against its own documents.

What stent is used for cystogastrostomy, and is a stent included in the set?

The 8.5 and the 10 French set hold two components, the outer tube with the diathermy tip and the inner catheter with the puncture needle, and no stent. For continued drainage the set takes 8.5 and 10 French double pigtail stents from the same portfolio.

Can a pancreatic cyst be drained endoscopically?

This set is for pancreatic pseudocysts and walled-off necrosis, not for every pancreatic cyst. Their drainage into the stomach or duodenum can be done under endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) guidance. This is a medical device page: only the physician who plans the treatment can decide which method suits which patient. If you are a patient or a relative, please ask your own physician.

How much does a cystogastrostomy set cost?

The price depends on the model (the 6 French cystotome, or the 8.5 or 10 French set) and the quantity. We do not publish a list price on this page. Use the quote button on this page for a fast quote. We quote for hospitals in Türkiye and answer international enquiries.
