RESUMEN
Adenocarcinoma with enteroblastic differentiation is a rare histologic subtype of adenocarcinoma of the gastrointestinal tract that shows unique histologic and immunohistochemical features that resemble fetal intestinal epithelium. This histological subtype has been widely described in the stomach, where it most frequently appears, but, in other locations, it is misdiagnosed because of the poor experience in routine diagnostic setting. Here we present a case of an 87-year-old male with an adenocarcinoma of the ampulla of Vater with enteroblastic differentiation with a literature review of the cases described of this subtype in this location to date. The anatomical peculiarity of the ampulla, joined with the infrequent nature of this histological subtype, makes this case of great interest to aid to better characterize the biological behavior of these tumors.
