Pancreatic pseudocysts are encapsulated collections of fluid which may complicate trauma or inflammation of the pancreas. The correct preoperative diagnosis of the pseudocyst can be established easily by the modern techniques of ultrasonography or computed tomography (1-3). However, recognition of the lesion on plain radiographs of the abdomen is rarely possible because the wall and content of pancreatic pseudocysts do not show a visually perceptible difference in density from the adjacent soft tissues (4). This report concerns an exceptional instance whereby a pancreatic pseudocyst was clearly demarcated by virtue of radiographically detectable calcium deposits in its wall.
胰腺假性囊肿是包裹性的液体积聚，可能并发于胰腺创伤或炎症。利用现代超声检查或计算机断层扫描技术（1 - 3），可轻松实现胰腺假性囊肿的术前正确诊断。然而，在腹部平片上很难识别该病变，因为胰腺假性囊肿的壁和内容物在密度上与相邻软组织相比，并无肉眼可察觉的差异（4）。本报告涉及一个特殊病例，该胰腺假性囊肿因其壁上存在可通过放射学检测到的钙沉积而被清晰界定。
