Uncomplicated spontaneous rupture of the pancreatic pseudocyst into the duodenum: Case report

Pancreatic pseudocyst is one of the common complications of acute and chronic pancreatitis. Although most pseudocysts resolve spontaneously with supportive care, larger pseudocysts are more likely to cause complications. Large pancreatic pseudocysts may rupture spontaneously into the gastrointestinal tract and are usually associated with life-threatening bleeding. Surgical treatment or interventional drainage procedures may be necessary. Uncomplicated rupture of pseudocyst is extremely rare.
