Pancreatic Pseudocyst of the Mediastinum
Radiology, 1977The mediassinum is a relatively uncommon site for a pancreatic pseudocyst. Two such cases are presented, along with a review of 14 additional cases from the English literature. In most cases the pseudocyst is located in the posterior mediastinum, with entry to the mediastinum via the aortic or esophageal hiatus.

Mediastinal pancreatic pseudocyst
Gastrointestinal Radiology, 1979The extension of a pancreatic pseudocyst into the mediastinum is a difficult clinical and radiographic diagnosis. The chest roentgenogram reveals a retrocardiac mass in a patient with nonspecific upper abdominal and chest complaints. Usually there is a preceding history of alcoholism or pancreatitis. The upper gastrointestinal series often demonstrates

Diagnosis and management of pseudocysts of the pancreas often present difficult clinical problems. We reviewed our 18 patients with pancreatic pseudocysts treated between January 1985 and October 1989 to identify criteria for operative and nonoperative management based on size of the lesion on computerized tomography.

Mediastinal pancreatic pseudocyst
European Journal of Cardio-Thoracic Surgery, 1992Pseudocysts of the pancreas are a rare cause of a mediastinal mass. They are clinically characterized by the combination of thoracic symptoms (shortness of breath, dysphagia, pleural effusions) with complaints in the upper abdominal quadrants and weight loss. The diagnosis is usually made by CT scan or MRI including upper abdominal views.

Imaging of Pancreatic Pseudocyst
2009Pseudocysts are fluid filled masses with a wall made of inflammatory and fibrotic tissue rather than a true epithelial lining. They develop from a fluid collection following a pancreatic injury and are circumscribed by a pseudo-capsule (Fig. 15.1) (Hammond et al. 2002; Kim et al. 2005). Open image in new window Fig. 15.1.

ENDOSCOPIC TREATMENT OF PANCREATIC PSEUDOCYSTS
Pancreas, 2005This study aimed to assess the effectiveness of therapeutic endoscopy in the treatment of pancreatic pseudocysts, and to define factors limiting endoscopic therapy.The results of therapeutic endoscopy were evaluated for 170 patients with pancreatic pseudocysts treated at the Department of Surgery, Helsinki University Central Hospital, during the 6-year

Management of pancreatic pseudocysts
The American Journal of Surgery, 1972Abstract Over a ten year period a total of thirty-four patients with forty-four pseudocysts were treated. Thirty-two patients required operation, whereas in two the cyst resolved spontaneously. In eight patients acute cysts failed to respond to intensive medical management and required external drainage to control the course of the disease.
