Case report: Back pseudocyst of unknown origin

Abstract

Highlights Pseudocysts are defined as encapsulated fluid collections not lined by epithelium. The etiology of pseudocysts is highly variable and can be related to trauma, inflammation, or surgery. Morel-Lavallee lesion also known as closed degloving injury or post traumatic pseudocyst usually arises secondary to trauma or shearing force. Soft tissue masses are frequently reported complaints while nonpancreatic pseudocysts remain rare entities.
