Abstract

A case of pseudocyst of the pancreas simulating perinephric abscess is described. This condition is rare compared with most reported cases of pseudocyst causing pyelographic abnormalities by extrinsic compression. Spontaneous rupture of the pseudocyst is proposed as the mechanism by which the normally protective Gerota's fascia is penetrated.
