Pancreatic psudocyst is a late complication of acute pancreatitis. In our environment, cholelithiasis is the most common cause of pancreatitis, and pancreatic pseudocyst occurs in 10% of these patients. We report the case of a patient with a pancreatic psudocyst treated with endoscopic drainage. We highlight that the endoscopic approach is a safe method to treat this complication.
