Core Tip |
Sarcomatoid carcinoma of the pancreas (SCP) is an extremely rare and aggressive histologic subtype of undifferentiated pancreatic carcinoma. The prognosis of this neoplasm is similar to or even worse than that of typical pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). However, the clinical course and surgical outcomes of SCP remain poorly characterized owing to its rarity. Because there is no standard regimen for treating SCP, patients with this disease are administered the same regimens as those with more common PDACs. In the present study, we report a case of SCP; although some patients have a rapid recurrence and early death, long-term survival may be possible. |
