Abstract

Two patients who presented with acute pancreatitis and developed pseudocyst erosion of a major vessel are reported. Both cases had associated biliary tract disease. A fatal outcome in both cases demonstrates the seriousness of pseudocyst of the pancreas following acute pancreatitis when the patient's general health is already compromised.
