spontaneous Pancreatic Pseudocyst portal vein fistula presenting with Pancreatic ascites strength of mr cholangiopancreatography
British Journal of Radiology, 2008Co-Authors: S E Yoon, Y H Lee, K H Yoon, C S Choi, H C Kim, K M ChaeAbstract:Pancreatic Pseudocyst-portal vein fistulae are a very rare complication of acute or chronic pancreatitis. Another late complication of chronic pancreatitis is Pancreatic ascites. We report the case of a 43-year-old man with a spontaneous Pseudocyst-portal vein fistula presenting with Pancreatic ascites diagnosed by various imaging modalities, in order to emphasize the strength and efficacy of magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography.

massive Pancreatic Pseudocyst with portal vein fistula case report and proposed treatment algorithm
Pancreatology, 2015Co-Authors: Holly Rochefort, Christopher D Czaplicki, Pedro G R Teixeira, Lin Zheng, Lea Matsuoka, Jacques Van Dam, Sophoclis P AlexopoulosAbstract:Pancreatic Pseudocyst is a relatively common occurrence resulting from acute or chronic pancreatitis. However, a rare subset of these patients present with a Pseudocyst fistulizing into the portal vein. We present the case of a 58 year-old woman with a rapidly expanding Pancreatic Pseudocyst with portal venous fistulization causing portal vein thrombosis, in addition to biliary and duodenal obstruction. The patient underwent surgical decompression with a cyst-gastrostomy and was well until one week post- operatively when she experienced massive gastrointestinal hemorrhage leading to her death. A review of the literature is presented and a treatment algorithm to manage patients with Pancreatic Pseudocyst to portal vein fistula is proposed.

post traumatic Pancreatic Pseudocyst managed by roux en y drainage
Journal of Surgical Case Reports, 2015Co-Authors: Elroy Patrick Weledji, Ngowe M Ngowe, Divine M Mokake, Vincent VerlaAbstract:A Pancreatic Pseudocyst is a collection of serous fluid in relation to the pancreas following acute pancreatitis. If pancreatography is performed, most Pseudocysts will be found to have a connection with the Pancreatic ductal system. Most will resolve spontaneously but clinically significant Pseudocysts (∼5%) may require surgical intervention. Surgical (laparoscopic or open) direct drainage of Pancreatic Pseudocysts into the upper gastrointestinal tract is the mainstay of treatment with the possibility of Pancreatic resection if malignancy is suspected. We report a persistent post-traumatic Pancreatic Pseudocyst of 8-year duration, despite recurrent percutaneous aspiration that was finally managed by a Roux-en-Y drainage.

Endoscopic drainage of traumatic Pancreatic Pseudocyst.
The British journal of surgery, 1994Co-Authors: I. C. Funnell, Philippus C. Bornman, J. E. J. Krige, Stephen J. Beningfield, John TerblancheAbstract:Pancreatic Pseudocyst following trauma is usually caused by a major duct injury and may present late. The outcome of endoscopic treatment in five patients with post-traumatic Pseudocyst is described. Diagnosis was made from 3 weeks to 1 year after injury by ultrasonography and computed tomography. A distinct bulge was visible in the stomach or duodenum using endoscopic retrograde cholangio pancreatography, and a cyst enterostomy was established with a knife or standard papillotome. Successful drainage was achieved without complications. One patient developed a recurrence, which was redrained endoscopically, but surgical intervention was required for persistent pain. Early results suggest that endoscopic drainage for selected Pancreatic Pseudocysts is feasible and safe.
