Case reports of malignant lymphoma of the pancreas are extremely rare. We experienced a 36-year-old man with malignant lymphoma involving the pancreas associated with obstructive jaundice, confirmed by autopsy. It is very difficult to differentiate between pancreatic carcinoma and pancreatic malignant lymphoma. Age, icterus, diffuse pancreatic enlargement, pathological findings and tumor markers may be useful in suggesting lymphoma. Trials of positive biopsy, appropriate radiotherapy and chemotherapy are necessary in patients who may have malignant lymphoma of the pancreas.

D010190 Pancreatic Neoplasms Tumors or cancer of the PANCREAS. Depending on the types of ISLET CELLS present in the tumors, various hormones can be secreted: GLUCAGON from PANCREATIC ALPHA CELLS; INSULIN from PANCREATIC BETA CELLS; and SOMATOSTATIN from the SOMATOSTATIN-SECRETING CELLS. Most are malignant except the insulin-producing tumors (INSULINOMA).
