Abstract

ABSTRACT Pancreatic adenosquamous carcinoma, an uncommon subtype of pancreatic adenocarcinoma, is characterized by an aggressive course and poor prognosis, with the only method of cure being surgical resection at the time of diagnosis. It is a complex condition, as it presents nonspecifically and remains indistinguishable from pancreatic adenocarcinoma without imaging techniques despite its aggressive nature. We report an atypical case of pancreatic adenosquamous carcinoma, presenting with marked anemia, found on endoscopy to have a gastric mass. This is of interest to readers as a reminder that pancreatic cancers may present with gastric invasion and should remain on the differential diagnosis for gastric lesions.
