Abstract : We report the case of a 41 year old woman who presented with pain abdomen and obscure GI bleed. Radiological imaging was suggestive of a cystic lesion, probably a pseudocyst. Diagnosis could be obtained after exploratory laparotomy and histopathology examination. This case highlights the need to consider pancreatic malignancy as a differential diagnosis for pancreatic cystic lesions mimicking pseudocyst.

Keywords : Pancreatitis, WOPN, GI bleed, Ascites.
