Venkatachalapathy et al[77], 2018 Retrospective multicenter 116 WON, PFC 99 1 Hot Axios - No Distal LAMS removal followed by over-the-wire deployment of a new LAMS
Khan et al[78], 2021 Retrospective multicenter 208 PFC 97.1 7 - - - Distal LAMS re-insertion (not counted as technical failure) (1/7); immediate repeat drainage (5/7); procedure abandoned (1/7)
Law et al[79], 2018 Retrospective single center 46 WON 93.5 5 Cold Axios/hot Axios - - - LAMS removal followed by over-the-wire deployment of a new LAMS (4/5; 2 LAMS re-insertion, not counted as technical failure) and of a FCSEMS 10 × 60 mm (1/5)
Walter et al[10], 2015 Prospective multicenter 61 PFC 98 1 Axios - Yes Entirely inside the PFC Placement of double pigtail stents
Siddiqui et al[80], 2016 Retrospective multicenter 82 PFC 97.5 2 Cold Axios - Yes Distal LAMS removal followed by over-the-wire deployment of a SEMS; surgical cystogastrostomy (difficulty to re-advance the guidewire into the PFC to perform an endoscopic rescue therapy)
Mendoza et al[81], 2020 Retrospective single center 21 WON 95 1 Hot Axios - Yes Entirely inside the PFC LAMS misdeployed was left inside the collection and a new one was then successfully placed through the original puncture site (both stents were removed 4 wk later)
