Core Tip	Anaplastic carcinoma of the pancreas (ACP), an uncommon histologic subtype of pancreatic cancer, is well known to be associated with more aggressive tumor behavior and less favorable prognosis than conventional pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma. However, the literature on ACP has been very limited, and its clinicopathological features, therapeutic management, and clinical outcome remain uncertain. We report a case of ACP showing cyst formation and review 60 cases of ACP reported in Japan to elucidate the clinical and radiological features of ACP. This literature review describes the greatest number cases of ACP of any report to date.
