Summary

Pancreatic cancer tumours are among those tumours with a high malignant potential. Most patients with pancreatic cancer experience dyspepsia, pain in the upper abdomen or jaundice, and sometimes also acute pancreatitis. In our text we describe the case of a patient with repeated attacks of acute pancreatitis, which were followed by the development of a large pseudocyst and then after a long time pancreatic cancer was diagnosed. In this case report we would like to show the very difficult differential diagnostic of a wide spectrum of cystic lesions of the pancreas.

Key words:
cystic lesion of the pancreas
