The clinicalpathological, imaging and topographic appearance characteristics are not well<br>classified. This case report describes a patient with UC-OGC of the Pancreas Head. Our patient, an adult over 75 years of age, had a considerable illness time, without relevant symptoms until the advanced stages of the tumor, debuting with shallow gastric discomfort, then weight loss. In the diagnostic tests they found the presence of a tumor that compromised the stomach, duodenum and pancreas. The definitive diagnosis was given by the pathological study. There are not enough clinical data available for a treatment that guarantees a higher survival rate in patients, however, pancreatoduodenectomy is currently the alternative that offers the best results, on the other hand, the prognosis after surgery and the recurrence rate still uncertain.</p>}, number={4}, journal={Revista de la Facultad de Medicina Humana}, author={Palomino, Eugenio and Talavera, Jesús E.}, year={2019}, month={Oct.}, pages={1} }
