    AbstractA collision tumor is a rare clinical condition where two different tumors occur synchronically within a lesion. Pancreatic collision tumors with mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) are extremely rare and have only been reported in one case to date. We herein report an elderly patient with MCL and adenocarcinoma of the pancreas with Ann Arbor stage IV and Union for International Cancer Control stage IIB, respectively. The patient received palliative therapy and died 23 months after the diagnosis. Further research and case studies are required to investigate whether or not MCL-derived cyclin D1 overexpression affects the occurrence/growth of adenocarcinomas.
