For pseudocysts requiring treatment, most of time surgery is required which is done laparoscopically. It is performed through keyhole procedure in the abdomen, using fine tools and a lighted scope. This procedure minimizes hospitalization and recovery time. During surgery to treat a pseudocyst, the laparoscopic surgeon makes a connection between the pseudocyst and an nearby digestive organ, allowing the pseudocyst to drain through that organ. The connection made may be with the stomach, small intestine, or duodenum, the upper end of the small intestine, depends on the location of the pseudocyst within the pancreas.
