Primary pancreatic lymphoma (PPL) is an extremely rare disease, with only a few cases reported in the literature.

The origin of this type of lymphoma is often type B lymphocytes, and because the central nervous system (CNS) has no lymph nodes or lymphatic vessels, the cause of PCNSL is still uncertain (1).
