Abstract :
Chemoradiation is one of the therapeutic options in palliative treatment of locally advanced pancreatic adenocarcinoma, with awell-known safety profile. In this case report, we describe the treatment-related occurrence of an intrasplenic pancreaticpseudocyst which was successfully removed by gastrocystic drainage. This rare complication should be considered in thefollow-up and clinical management of patients, particularly if left-sided complaints occur.
