hi.

it is best if your husband do a follow-up consult with your doctor, preferably a surgeon. is it a psuedocyst in his pancreas? it is best if you ask your doctor, if it is possible for a surgical management in his case. i'm not sure what kind of pancreatic cyst your husband has, but there are a lot of surgical option for his case, especially when his problem is recurring.

hope this helps.

good day!!
