    Abstract:
    The authors present false pancreatic cysts and fistulae that have been encountered inthe practice of the I-st Clinic of Surgery from Tg-Mureş over a period of 10 years (between 1964 ans 1979). The author's personal cases are presented and the rarity of this type of disturbances is stressed. A total of 14 cases are described, of which 8 were false pancreatic cysts and 6 were false pancreatic fistulae. The major complications that occurred in the cases with false pancreatic cysts the most severe was the intra-cyst haemorrhage, that was encountered in 2 patients (of which one developed severe shock), and peritonitis, following rupture of the cyst in the peritoneal cavity. The 6 pancreatic fistulae have developed following surgery (3 cases), trauma (one case), and acute pancreatitis (2 cases). The treatment of the false cysts consisted in the external drainage (two emergencies), and cyst-gastrectomy. Pancreatic fistulae have benefited from fistulo-gastrostomy (two cases), while the remaining 4 patients were treated conservatively. Only one death was recorded in this group of patients.
