    Abstract:
    Extra-gastrointestinal stromal tumors arising from the pancreas are extremely rare. To date, just over 30 cases have been described in the world literature. A clinical observation of a 67-year-old patient with dull epigastric pain and a large cystic solid neoplasm instrumentally identified as an extra-gastrointestinal stromal tumor of the head of the pancreas is presented. The volume of surgical intervention consisted of pancreatogastroduodenectomy and right-sided hemicolectomy, since tumor invasion into the transverse mesocolon was detected intraoperatively. The final diagnosis of extra-gastrointestinal stromal sarcoma of the head of the pancreas with invasion into the mesocolon pT4N0M0, stage IIIb was made on the basis of histopathology and immunohistochemistry results.
