[Pancreaticopleural Fistula in a Patient with Metastatic Gastric Cancer].

Abstract

Pancreaticopleural fistula is a rare complication of alcohol-induced chronic pancreatitis. Here, we report the successful treatment of a patient with recurrent gastric cancer who developed a pancreaticopleural fistula during chemotherapy. The patient underwent endoscopic pancreatic main duct stenting and was discharged after 26 days of hospitalization.
