A splenic pseudocyst is an encapsulated mature collection located within the splenic tissues. It is usually asymptomatic and is detected incidentally during either radiological workup or laparoscopy for other reasons. Our patient is a 66-year-old male presenting with a history of weight loss, early satiety, and constipation, found to have a splenic pseudocyst communicating with a preexisting pancreatic cyst. Cystic lesions of the spleen can be divided into primary and secondary types. Secondary splenic cysts (pseudocysts) are residues of either earlier infection, trauma, or infarction. Management approaches to splenic cysts are either conservative or surgical according to the symptoms and size of these cysts. Most splenic cysts are discovered incidentally either during radiological workup or laparoscopy. Such entities require the combined effort of surgeons, gastroenterologists, and radiologists to provide the maximum care for these patients.
脾假性囊肿是位于脾组织内的一个有包膜的成熟液性肿物。它通常无症状，多在因其他原因进行影像学检查或腹腔镜检查时偶然发现。我们的患者是一名66岁男性，有体重减轻、早饱及便秘史，发现有一个脾假性囊肿与一个先前存在的胰腺囊肿相通。脾的囊性病变可分为原发性和继发性两类。继发性脾囊肿（假性囊肿）是既往感染、创伤或梗死的残留。根据脾囊肿的症状和大小，其治疗方法分为保守治疗和手术治疗。大多数脾囊肿是在影像学检查或腹腔镜检查时偶然发现的。这类病症需要外科医生、胃肠病学家和放射科医生共同努力，为这些患者提供最佳治疗。
