“…A large locally expansive D‐GIST may mimic several primary pancreatic tumors, including a nonfunctioning neuroendocrine tumor (NET), islet cell tumor, adenocarcinoma as well as retroperitoneal malignancies, and perivascular epithelioid cell tumor (PEComa) 4 . A review of the literature yielded only a handful of such cases of D‐GISTs masquerading as a pancreatic mass, preoperatively, akin to our case 4–8 …”

“…It may mimic non-functioning P-NET, islet cell tumour, retroperitoneal mass and PEComa which is reported in the literature, akin to our case. On reviewing the literature, we could nd only 11 such cases where D-GIST masquerades as pancreatic head mass (Table 1) and the surgeon must be aware of such a unique conundrum [5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15].…”

Duodenal gastrointestinal stromal tumours (D-GISTs) are rare disease. It may arise commonly from second or third part of the duodenum and can be erroneously diagnosed as a pancreatic head tumour due to proximity and morphology on imaging studies. We present a case of a sixty-year-old woman who presented with abdominal pain and was diagnosed as a case of pancreatic neuroendocrine tumour on radiologic imaging and granulomatous lesion on aspiration cytology. On laparotomy, a ~5x3 cm mass was noted in the pancreatic head and pancreatoduodenectomy was performed. Histopathology reported an exophytic GIST arising from the second part of the duodenum.Hence, D-GIST can invade into the pancreas and mimic pancreatic head tumour; therefore, these tumours should be kept in the differential diagnosis of an atypical pancreatic head mass.
