Massive pancreatic pseudocyst with portal vein fistula: case report and proposed treatment algorithm.
Pancreatology : Official Journal of the International Association of Pancreatology (IAP) ... [et Al.] 2015 January
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.
