  abstract = {Background: Pancreatic pseudocyst is a well known complication that develops 3-4 weeks after onset of attack of acute pancreatitis. Sudden onset massive pleural effusion represents an unusual pulmonary complication of pseudopancreatic cyst. Method: We are reporting a case of 48 years old male who presented in emergency with pseudopancratic cyst and developed acute respiratory distress during his stay. The timely diagnosis of ruptured pseudocyst into the pleural cavity and prompt intervention with intercostal tube drainage saved the patient’s life. Conclusion: Spontaneous rupture of pseudopancreatic cyst into the pleural cavity is a rare complication that can be potentially fatal if not managed in time.},
