Abstract

Undifferentiated osteoclast-like giant cell pancreatic carcinoma (UC-OGC) is a rare pancreatic carcinoma that is composed of osteoclast-like giant cells among other cells and is hardly described in literature due to its infrequent presentation. With that, a rare symptom of pancreatic cancers is upper gastrointestinal (GI) bleeding. We report a 76-year-old African American male who presented with one episode of bloody emesis associated with intermittent episodes of severe abdominal pain and a 25 lbs of unintentional weight loss secondary to metastatic UC-OGC. The patient was stabilized and referred to an oncologist for further treatment. We present this case to add to the existing literature on UC-OGC of the pancreas.
