After colorectal carcinomas of gastrointestinal malignancies, Pancreatic carcinoma is the second most common type. Undifferentiated carcinoma of the pancreas (UCP) is a rare malignant epithelial neoplasm, accounting for 0.5% and 0.7% of pancreatic tumors. Undifferentiated carcinoma with osteoclastlike giant cells (UC-OGCs) of the pancreas was first described by Rosai in 1989. UCP has a much poorer prognosis than typical ductal adenocarcinoma of the pancreas. Undifferentiated carcinoma pancreas with osteoclastic-like giant cells (UC-OGC )comprises of benign giant cells in a background of atypical pleomorphic mononuclear malignant cells.
