Abstract
The cancer of Papilla Vater results from mostly adenocarcinoma. Pure squamous cell carcinoma is very rare in the cancer of Papilla Vater. We reported here a case of pure squamous cell carcinoma arising in Papilla Vater.
In spite of extended radical p a ncreat-duodenectomy for advanced cancer, the patient died because of bone metastasis in such a short time of 6 months after operation. This case suggests a possibility that squamous cell carcinoma of Papilla Vater has a poor prognosis compared with adenocarcinoma.
