We present the case of a patient with alcoholic chronic pancreatitis who developed pancreatic ascites. The analysis of ascitic fluid was diagnostic; and ERCP showed one fistula in the pancreatic head to the peritoneal cavity. The patient was treated by continuous somatostatin infusion (250 micrograms/h) for 15 days resulting in the disappearance of the ascites and avoiding the risky surgical therapy.
