Abstract:   (2460 Views)
Background: Primary squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) of the pancreas is a rare tumor and associated with poor prognosis. The diagnosis and optimal management of patients is still a matter of debate and not well-defined. Limited chemotherapy protocols, radiotherapy and surgical resection of the tumor were proposed for the management of patients suffering from SCC of the pancreas.
Case Presentation: In this report, we introduced a 57-year-old man who was diagnosed with SCC of the pancreas along with liver metastasis. The patient underwent surgical resection and several adjuvant systemic chemotherapies including fluorouracil and taxane based regimens which were led to the 13- month overall survival.
Conclusion: Although, the patients died from underlying tumor, the survival time before death was one of the longest time/period reported.
