ABSTRACT
Pancreatic pseudocysts in children are uncommon. The authors report 8 cases seen during 23 years of activity at the children hospital of Tunis. Four cases were due to abdominal trauma and one was a complication of acute pancreatitis. Operative treatment included drainage in 3 cases, cystgastrostomy or cystjejunostomy in 5 cases. The prognosis is good in 7 cases, the eighth case had a pancreatitis who carried his death in the third day after operation. The authors discuss the therapeutic modalities about these 8 cases
