    Abstract:
    We report a case of aberrant pancreatic cancer of the jejunum in a 63 year-old man. The patient was admitted to our hospital with epigastric discomfort and vomiting due to obstruction of the jejunum. Laparotomy revealed a submucosal tumor on the jejunum with multiple liver metastases. Histological examination showed the tumor to be a well differentiated tubular adenocarcinoma originating from aberrant pancreatic tissues lacking islets. Only 1 case of aberrant pancreatic cancer in the jejunum has been previously reported in the literature.
