The World Health Organization recently recognized intraductal oncocytic papillary neoplasms of the pancreas (IOPNs) as distinct, pre-malignant pancreatic neoplasms. Due to their unique macroscopic and microscopic features, IOPNs are typically easy to diagnose and yield an indolent prognostic outcome. The diagnosis may be more complicated, and the prognosis may differ if an associated invasive carcinoma is present. Owing to the rarity of this entity, the available data is severely limited. Herein, we report a diagnostically challenging case of an IOPN associated with invasive carcinoma, initially presenting as a gastric mass with distinctive radiological and histopathological features.
