[Primary pancreatic lymphoma clinically mimicking carcinoma. An important differential diagnostic problem due to the different therapeutic implications].

Primary pancreatic lymphoma is very rare; the most commonly described subtype is diffuse large B-cell lymphoma. Although it is morphologically similar to lymphoproliferative lesions found in other locations, clinically it can mimic an epithelial neoplasm. The differential diagnosis is important due to the different therapeutic implications of each entity. We present a case of primary pancreatic lymphoma in a 77-year-old woman and describe its characteristic features.
