Mediastinal pancreatic pseudocyst
Digestive Diseases and Sciences, 1984Among previous cases of mediastinal pseudocyst requiring surgical decompression, all but one had been found at surgery to occupy a position both in the mediastinum and in the upper abdomen. In the present case, although preoperative ultrasound and CT scans suggested that the pseudocyst was straddling the diaphragm, an abdominal portion could not be ...

Treatment of Pancreatic Pseudocysts
Scandinavian Journal of Surgery, 2005According to the Atlanta classification an acute pseudocyst is a collection of pancreatic juice enclosed by a wall of fibrous or granulation tissue, which arises as a consequence of acute pancreatitis or pancreatic trauma, whereas a chronic pseudocyst is a collection of pancreatic juice enclosed by a wall of fibrous or granulation tissue, which arises ...

Pancreatic Abscess and Pseudocyst
Archives of Surgery, 1977• Nausea, vomiting, normal serum amylase values, and clinical and roentgenographic evidence of epigastric or retrogastric masses were common findings in 19 patients with pseudocysts and eight with abscesses treated from 1969 through 1974. Helpful criteria for distinguishing between pancreatic pseudocyst and abscess were signs of sepsis.

Reoperations for Pancreatic Pseudocyst
Archives of Surgery, 1970Pseudocysts of the pancreas usually pose more of a diagnostic than a therapeutic problem. Once recognized, current methods of surgical drainage are generally considered to yield excellent results. Since failures in surgical management are infrequent, it is not surprising that little is known of why they occur or how they may be avoided.

Improvements in imaging studies and a better understanding of the natural history of pancreatic fluid collections (PFCs) have allowed the different types to be clarified. Stratification of PFCs into subgroups should help in selecting from the increasing current available treatment options, which include percutaneous, endoscopic and surgical drainage ...

Management of Pancreatic Pseudocysts
Journal of the American College of Surgeons, 1998Operative internal drainage has been standard treatment for chronic unresolved pancreatic pseudocysts (PPs). Recently, percutaneous external drainage (PED) has become the primary mode of treatment at many medical centers.A retrospective chart review was performed of 96 patients with PPs who were managed between 1987 and 1996.

Pancreatic Pseudocyst of the Mediastinum
The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 1986A patient with pancreatic pseudocyst of the mediastinum is presented. Weight loss, chest or abdominal pain, and dyspnea are the most frequent symptoms of mediastinal pseudocyst. Chest roentgenogram frequently demonstrates a posterior mediastinal mass, and esophagogram always shows esophageal displacement.

Mediastinal Pancreatic Pseudocyst
Southern Medical Journal, 1983We have described a case of extension into the mediastinum by a pancreatic pseudocyst. This rare phenomenon should be included in the differential diagnosis of mediastinal mass lesions. We advocate the use of CT in evaluating a mediastinal mass to determine its solid or cystic nature, size, extent, and relationship to adjacent structures.

The American Journal of Surgery, 1974
Abstract The records of nine patients referred for evaluation of pancreatic pseudocysts were reviewed. Nearly all presented with the triad of epigastric pain, palpable abdominal mass, and distortion or displacement of the upper gastrointestinal tract on barium study.

The mechanics of pancreatic pseudocyst
Journal of Biomechanics, 1981Abstract The mechanical properties of normal and pancreatic pseudocyst tissues were studied in one-dimensional stress tests. The resulting load-unload cycles were analyzed assuming elastic, homogeneous, isotropic, incompressible behavior for which a strain energy density function exists.
