Introduction: The sarcoidosis is an idiopathic multisystem inflammatory disease characterized by the presence of non-caseating granulomas in the affected organs. A clear association between sarcoidosis and malignancies has been reported. Cancer can occur in patients with an established diagnosis of sarcoidosis and sarcoidosis can subsequently develop in a cancer patient. Malignancy can also be associated with the occurrence of sarcoid reactions. Case Report: We report the case of sarcoidosis/sarcoid-like reaction associated with pseudopapillary pancreatic tumor.

Conclusion: This case report emphasizes the need to add sarcoidosis in the differential diagnosis of lung lesions associated with pancreatic tumors.
