Abstract
Abstract We present a case of spontaneous regression of a cystic peripancreatic tumor in a 12-year-old boy. The cystic tumor was initially suspected to be a pancreatic pseudocyst associated with traumatic pancreatic damage. However, the differential diagnosis included the possibility of lymphatic malformation in view of the clinical and image findings. In anticipation of spontaneous regression, the patient has been followed without treatment. Elective drainage is available but fortunately the cyst has shown no sign of expansion. Close surveillance may be a treatment option for a cystic peripancreatic tumor.
