“…However, duodenal intramural pseudocysts are exceedingly rare; we found only 10 cases reported in four English language journal articles [2][3][4][5]. Seven of these patients had underlying acute pancreatitis, whereas the other three had symptoms atypical of acute pancreatitis but no evidence of pancreatic cancer.…”

“…Pancreatic pseudocysts, a well-recognized complication of acute pancreatitis and trauma, are usually found around the pancreas, but occur in a variety of locations such as the alimentary tract [2][3][4][5][7][8][9][10], liver [11], and mediastinum [12]. However, duodenal intramural pseudocysts are exceedingly rare; we found only 10 cases reported in four English language journal articles [2][3][4][5].…”

“…The duodenum is a common target for spontaneous decompression of pancreatic pseudocysts as it is in intimate contact with the tissue-disruptive secretions from pseudocysts at the pancreatic head. Bellon et al note that the posterior aspect of D2 was the most frequent site of involvement [35]. None of the cases involved bleeding but close to 75% had duodenal obstruction in their small series.…”

“…The exact mechanism of the formation of the pseudocysts in the GIT wall are not known. The possible mechanisms are suggested for their formation includes rupture of a pancreatic pseudocyst into the GIT wall, presence of a fistula between the pancreas and the alimentary tract and inflammation of heterotopic pancreatic tissue within the GIT wall 345678910111213. Due to their rarity there are no guidelines on their management and most of the described cases in the literature have been either treated surgically or have spontaneously decompressed by rupturing into the GIT lumen 345678910111213…”
