Abstract
Pseudocyst of the pancreas is a localized fluid collection , rich in pancreatic enzymes and is surrounded by a wall of fibrous tissue that is not lined by epithelium . They are caused by pancreatic ductal disruption following increased pancreatic ductal pressure as a sequelae to acute or chronic pancreatitis. Here we report a rare presentation of a patient with dysphagia due to pseudocyst of pancreas.
