Abstract
Primary pancreatic lymphoma (PPL) is an extremely rare non-epithelial tumor constituting far less than 1% of all pancreatic neoplasm. Clinical and imaging findings are otherwise non-specific in differentiation of pancreatic lymphoma from other pancreatic cancers. Herein, we report a case of PPL presenting as multiple masses in the pancreatic head, body and tail.Keywords
