[Pancreatico-pleural fistula in chronic pancreatitis].
Seven patients presented with a pancreatic pleural fistula in the context of chronic pancreatitis. The diagnosis was made by analysis of the pleural effusion and by endoscopic retrograde pancreatography which opacified the fistula in six cases. Surgical procedure (five resections, one Roux-en-Y drainage and one resection associated with Roux-en-Y drainage) was guided by the morphology of the pancreatic duct and the presence of pseudocysts. All patients were successfully treated by surgery.
