  ABSTRACT: Unlike primary pancreatic carcinoma, metastases to the pancreas are rare and their resection may be performed as a palliative treatment due to poorly defined outcome. We herein present an extremely rare case of pancreatic metastases of malignant fibrous histiocytoma (MFH) undergoing pancreaticoduodenectomy with tumor-free survival within postoperative 35-month follow-up. Pancreatic resection for metastatic MFH to the pancreas should be considered in selected patients. Long-term survival or good palliation may be achieved.
