Background:
The most frequent etiology of pancreatic pseudocyst is acute pancreatitis and exacerbations of chronic pancreatitis, presenting spontaneous resolution in 50% of the cases. Treatment is indicated in symptomatic or complicated persistent pseudocysts. The OBJECTIVE of this article is to present a case and management options of pancreatic pseudocyst defined as a collection of fluid in the omental bursa.
Clinical Case:
We present the case of a 59-year-old female patient with a history of laparoscopic cholecystectomy and necrotizing pancreatitis. She presented abdominal pain, early satiety, and nausea during the previous 2 months. Presence of pancreatic pseudocysts of 92 and 62 mm was demonstrated by computed tomography. The patient was submitted to a laparoscopic cyst-gastric anastomosis.
Conclusions:
Laparoscopic cyst-gastric anastomosis is the ideal treatment for pancreatic pseudocyst management because it offers continuous drainage, low rate of recurrence and few complications, exceeding the RESULTS of endoscopic management and imaging-guided drainage along with the benefits of a minimally invasive procedure.
