Abstract

Metastatic lesions to the pancreas are a rare entity and make up about 0.5-5% of all pancreatic malignancies. Synchronous pancreatic metastasis is even less frequently reported. Before the widespread use of advanced endoscopic techniques, distinguishing between primary and secondary malignancies of the pancreas was diagnostically challenging. The accuracy of diagnosing metastatic lesions to the pancreas using endoscopic ultrasound with fine needle aspiration is around 91%. Distinguishing between primary and secondary lesions is crucial in determining disease management. We present a case of a young man who presented with synchronous pancreatic metastasis from colon adenocarcinoma.
