Abstract:Pancreatic pseudocyst is a fluid collection contained within a well-defined capsule of fibrous or granulation tissue or a combination of both. It does not possess an epithelial lining, persists for more than four weeks and may develop in the setting of acute or chronic pancreatitis. The cyst can present anywhere from mediastinum to scrotum and pelvis. We present a case of pseudocyst of the pancreas in the groin, which was treated successfully by percutaneous aspiration.
