“Mediastinal Pseudocyst: A Case Report and Review of Literature”

Abstract

A mediastinal pseudocyst is the extension of pancreatic pseudocyst into the posterior mediastinum through esophageal or aortic hiatus or rarely through the foramen of Morgagni. It is a rare complication of acute or chronic pancreatitis. We report a rare case of mediastinal pseudocyst of a 35-year-old male alcoholic who was presented with dyspnea, hemoptysis.
