Clinical deterioration was often the factor leading to surgery. The retrospective study of ten cases of pancreatic pseudocyst pointed to the value of ultrasound as an indicator of pancreatic duct involvement. CT was also of help in one case. ERCP, performed only in one patient before surgery, may be indicated in difficult cases. | lld:pubmed |
