Abstract We present a case of a 48-year-old male patient who was admitted in our clinic for right nasal obstruction, antero-posterior mucopurulent rhinorrhea, recurrent right micro-epistaxis, hyposmia, cacosmia and right hemicrania. ENT findings and CT scan detects proliferative, polylobate, vascularized tumor formation occupying the right nasal nostril, with muco-purulent secretions lining the tumor formation. The tumor pushes the intersinusal wall to the side and the nasal septum to the contralateral nostril. The apparent origin is at the level of the right middle nasal meatus, but we could not identify a clear limit from the nasopharynx lateral and posterior wall. Resection of the entire tumor formation was performed under endoscopic control. The histopathological outcome revealed undifferentiated carcinoma; immunohistochemical tests were performed and support the myoepithelial origins.

Pathologic Features

Undifferentiated carcinoma with osteoclastic giant cells is a distinctive rare neoplasm involving pancreas and rarely bile ducts. This neoplasm shows characteristic histologic features with variable admixture of mononuclear histiocytic cells, non- neoplastic osteoclastic giant cells and neoplastic mononuclear cell component. Though, this tumor has been shown to share genetic alterations with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma, clinically, it behaves unpredictably with a substantial proportion of patient showing prolonged survival period. We present a case of this rare pancreatic tumour with brief literature review discussing the key pathologic features, immunophenotype, genetic profile and clinical behavior. Undifferentiated carcinoma with osteoclastic giant cells is a rare neoplasm in pancreas which is believed to be of epithelial origin and shares genetic aberrations with ductal adenocarcinoma. Despite this, these tumours have better prognosis with prolonged survival period.
