Abstract
Pancreatic pseudocysts are uncommon and very few cases have been reported in Nigeria. Six cases of pancreatic pseudocysts were treated at Ife University Teaching Hospitals Complex from 1984 to 1986. The striking presenting symptoms were abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting and weight loss. Investigative procedures of serum amylase, barium studies and ultrasonography were performed. One resolved spontaneously, 5 patients had internal drainage and one of these died. The surviving patients are still being followed up.
