A rare case of gastric adenocarcinoma with enteroblastic differentiation presenting pancreatic hepatoid adenocarcinoma metastases

We presented a rare case of gastric adenocarcinoma with enteroblastic differentiation with pancreatic hepatoid adenocarcinoma metastasis. Tumors in the primitive site of the stomach and metastatic site in the pancreas demonstrated different morphological characteristics. Endoscopic-assisted tissue acquisition played a pivotal role in presurgical assessment, but may still trap in the pitfall in such a rare and obfuscated pathological case. This case highlights the significance of being acquainted with the diversity of pancreatic tumors, which brings challenges to clinical differential diagnosis in practice.
