Rare extension of pancreatic pseudocyst with into the iliopsoas muscle.

Pancreatic pseudocyst is a well-known complication of both acute and chronic pancreatitis. Although extension into other anatomical sites is common, extension into the retrofascial space causing an iliopsoas abscess is exceedingly rare. Although its low incidence creates a diagnostic challenge for clinicians, early diagnosis is essential to prevent significant complications and poor patient outcomes.
