Summary:Pancreatic pseudocysts are very common cystic lesions after any inflammatory process of the pancreas. The majority are asymptomatic and only a small minority present complications or produce compression symptoms.

We present the case of a patient with a ruptured pseudocyst for whom we avoided surgical treatment and opted for conservative treatment, with good evolution.
