A 60-year-old woman presented to hospital with abdominal pain and massive weight loss. Imaging studies confirmed the presence of a tumor of the pancreas. Histologic analysis of the sampling performed by echoendoscopic ultrasound fine-needle aspiration found aspects evocative of adenosquamous carcinoma. This case report highlights the difficulties of clinical pathologic diagnosis for these occasionally composite tumors. The patient underwent palliative chemotherapy based on platinum and 5-fluorouracil, followed by second-line chemotherapy with FOLFIRI after progression. Adenosquamous carcinoma of the pancreas remains a rare tumor with very poor prognosis and limited therapeutic options.

Pancreatic neoplasms in children are rare. Herein is reported the case of a four-year-old girl whose mother was exposed to radiation at Chernobyl that presented with obstructive jaundice and a mass suspected on CT and diagnosed by endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) with fine needle aspiration (FNA). This child is probably the youngest case of application of linear EUS with biopsy to be described. The diagnosis, management, and followup of children with this rare tumor are discussed.
