Abstract

Low Grade Fibromyxoid Sarcoma (LGFMS) is an uncommon neoplasm generally affecting muscle tissue. It presents rarely in abdominal viscera and even more rarely occurs in the pancreas. We present the case of a 49-year-old female who underwent a distal pancreatectomy and splenectomy for a LGFMS causing epigastric pain.
