title: Endoscopic treatment of a pancreatic pseudocyst by naso-cystic tube.
abstract: Pancreatic pseudocysts can be treated by endoscopic procedures. We report a case in which a naso-gastric tube, endoscopically placed through a cysto-gastrostomy, permitted the successful drainage of a large pancreatic pseudocyst without any recurrence.
