Abstract Pancreatic acinar cell carcinoma (PACC) is a rare malignant tumor of pancreatic epithelial cells, which produces pancreatic exocrine enzymes. PACC originates from acinar cells and terminal branches of the pancreatic ducts in the exocrine tissue of the pancreas. PACC accounts for 1%−2% of pancreatic exocrine tumors [1] . Herein, we present an elderly woman with PACC who recovered after effective laparoscopic surgery. The tumor was located on the left side of the abdomen; imaging suggested that it was a gastrointestinal stromal tumor of the gastric wall origin, infiltrating the tail of the pancreas and omentum, while postoperative pathology suggested PACC.
