Abstract
A 46-year-old man was admitted to the hospital with alcoholic chronic pancreatitis complicated by infectious pseudocysts. As multiple pseudocysts were seen, both transduodenal and percutaneous drainage of the cysts were performed to improve the general condition. The ERCP finding revealed some strictures of the main pancreatic duct in the head. It was highly suspected that multiple pseudocysts were caused by those pancreatic ductal strictures. Then we performed endoscopic transpapillary stenting of the pancreatic duct. The postoperative course was uneventful without recurrence of the pseudocysts.
