ABSTRACT
In the years 1974-96, 27 patients aged 31-74 were treated for symptomatic pseudocysts. The duration of symptoms ranged from 3 months to 20 years. Patients were complaining for pain in the upper abdomen (82%), feeling of fullness (59%), nausea and vomiting (41%), weight loss (23%). Diagnosis was confirmed by USG and CT except of two patients who were diagnosed during emergency surgery because of the cyst rupture. Multiple cysts were present in 4 patients others had single cysts. The treatment comprised excision of the cyst in 13 patients, excision with partial right lobectomy in 4, fenestration in 5 (laparoscopically in two), marsupialisation of ruptured cyst in one and in remaining 4 puncturing or transcutaneous drainage. Good result of treatment was achieved in all cases. Histologic examination of the cysts revealed serosal cyst in 18, echinococcal in 2, adenoma originating from bile ducts epithelium in the remaining. The follow up period is 3 months to 21 years. No recurrence of the cyst was noted.
