RESUMEN

INTRODUCTION AND IMPORTANCE: Fine needle aspiration is the standard method for the pathological evaluation of pancreatic masses. In the following context, rare variants of such masses might present a challenge. Our goal is to describe the clinical, cytological, and histological findings of two cases of undifferentiated carcinoma with osteoclast-like giant cells (UCOCGC) a rare variant of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). CASE PRESENTATION: Two cases were identified. Cytological findings exhibit similarities between the two cases. One patient received multiple chemotherapy regimens and a surgery and recurred within three years of diagnosis, while the other succumbed to cholangitis resulting from hepatic metastases a year after their initial surgery. DISCUSSION: UCOCGC is a rare variant of pancreatic cancer, characterized by a unique cytological aspect. Recognizing this variant is essential considering its distinct prognosis compared to usual pancreatic adenocarcinoma. CONCLUSION: We presented two cases of UCOCGC a rare pancreatic cancer variant, exposing diagnostic particularities and clinical evolution.
