Resumo: A pancreatic pseudocyst (PPC) is an accumulation of fluid that is almost always sterile and is rich in digestive enzymes and pancreatic juice. It is encapsulated in a wall of fibrous tissue and granulation tissue without an epithelial lining. Pseudocysts can develop from complications in the pancreas that lead to obstruction or rupture of a pancreatic duct. PPC is an uncommon disorder in children. We present the case of a 10-year-old boy diagnosed with a symptomatic pancreatic pseudocyst with progressive growth that resulted from closed abdominal trauma. Due to the characteristics of the pseudocyst, a transgastric endoscopic drainage was chosen as a first-line treatment and it allowed a complete recovery of the patient with no need for further treatments, including pancreatic stenting.

Os pseudocistos podem desenvolver-se a partir de complicações no pâncreas que levam à obstrução ou rutura de um ducto pancreático. Os PPC são uma situação pouco frequente em crianças. Apresentamos o caso de um menino de 10 anos com diagnóstico de pseudocisto pancreático sintomático com crescimento progressivo na sequência de um trauma abdominal fechado. Pelas características do pseudocisto, a drenagem endoscópica transgástrica foi escolhida como tratamento de primeira linha, permitindo recuperação completa do paciente sem necessidade de novos tratamentos, incluindo colocação de uma prótese pancreática.Sociedade Portuguesa de Pediatria2022-01-24info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/articlehttps://doi.org/10.25754/pjp.2022.24478eng2184-44532184-3333Correia, CatarinaAlmeida, NunoMacedo, ClaudiaFrancelina Lopes, MariaFigueiredo, Pedroinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessreponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAP2023-08-03T02:58:19Zoai:ojs.revistas.rcaap.pt:article/24478Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-19T20:25:38.405250Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse
