N2  - Chronic pancreatitis and pancreatic cancer are two separate pancreatic pathology, which can be quite difficult at time to distinguishfrom each other, with similar clinical and laboratory findings. When conventional radiological methods such as Ultrasonography (USG),Computed Tomography (CT), Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) are insufficent, fluorodeoxyglucose-positron emission tomography(FDG-PET), Endoscopic Ultrasonography (EUS) and EUS guided fine needle aspiration biopsy may be useful in the differential diagnosis.In this paper, we report a case, characterized by enlargement of the head of the pancreas secondary to inflammation, a focal pancreatitisinvolved with pancreatic cancer.( Sakarya Med J 2016, 6(4):235-239 ).
