Popis:	Pancreatic pseudocysts represent a complication of acute interstitial edematous pancreatitis with a frequency of about 10–20%, and most of these resolve spontaneously. Treatment is indicated only in patients who develop symptoms such as abdominal pain, gastric outlet obstruction, jaundice for compression of the biliary system, or in case of infection. Pancreatic pseudocysts’ complications include pseudocyst infection leading to sepsis, rupture with pancreatic ascites, bleeding or formation of pseudoaneurysm, and, rarely, fistulization to other viscera. The most common sites for fistulas are between cysts and the stomach, duodenum, and colon. Here, we present the case of a patient with severe acute pancreatitis who developed multiple infected fluid collections with a cysto-duodenum fistula that was successfully treated with endoscopic intervention.
