Abstract

A rare lymphoepithelial lesion of the pancreas was discovered incidentally at autopsy. This lesion is composed of epithelial-lined cystic spaces encompassed by lymphoid stroma, similar to lesions reported in the salivary glands. Review of the literature revealed only three similar cases. This lesion should be considered in the differential diagnosis of pancreatic cysts.
