Core Tip

Core Tip: Clear cell sarcoma (CCS) is a rare soft tissue sarcoma accounting for less than 1% of sarcomas and was originally reported in 1965. CCS is a type of highly invasive cancer which mainly metastasizes to the lungs, followed by the bones and brain, but pancreatic metastasis is relatively rare. Here, we give details of the clinical manifestations and imaging features of a case of metastatic CCS of the pancreas.
