Abstract:
Pure squamous carcinoma is a rare pancreas cancer histological variety. Moreover the association of malign humoral hypercalcemia and neoplasia of the pancreas exocrine portion is extremely rare. The case of a patient with pure squamous pancreas carcinoma and hypercalcemia is discussed. The absence of bone metastasis allowed to classify it within the malign humoral hypercalcemia syndrome. It is the first case described in the spanish scientific literature and the third in the international literature of an epidermoid pancreas carcinoma associated to malign humoral hypercalcemia.
