ABSTRACT
Pancreatic pseudocysts represent the 75% of cystic pancreatic lesions. Only 10% are originated after trauma. We report a 32 years old female patient, with a history of a closed abdominal trauma two months ago, who attended the General Surgery consultation office at the Regional Hospital of Huambo, Angola. She visibly presented a palpable focal increase of volume in mesogastrium. She was admitted with the diagnosis of abdominal tumor. A pancreatic pseudocyst was identified, and a percutaneous drainage was carried out with complete resolution and uneventful evolution, without relapses to the present. In this patient, the percutaneous drainage proved to be useful as the first choice approach.REFERENCES
