    Background: Pancreatic infections due to Acinetobacter baumannii, a wider drug resistant gram negative bacillus, are unusual. Its management is complicated and should include surgical and antimicrobial treatments. Methods: A case report and review of the pertinent English-language literature are presented. Results: We report a case of a patient with a previous acute pancreatitis that developed an infected pancreatic pseudocyst requiring surgical and antimicrobial treatment. Conclusions: This etiology is unique in the literature, and given the emergence of multidrug resistance pattern, worldwide, initial empiric therapy with drugs such as quinolones and carbapenems is recommended, jointly with proper surgical management
