title: Subcapsular pancreatic pseudocyst of the kidney.
abstract: Pancreatic pseudocysts are a well-known complication of pancreatitis and may occur in unusual locations. We report a case of a child with hereditary pancreatitis who developed a subcapsular pseudocyst of the left kidney. The constellation of findings of calcific pancreatitis and a left renal subcapsular fluid collection should raise the possibility of a subcapsular pseudocyst.
