Edson Guzmán Calderón,
Carcinosarcomas, are very rare tumors in gastrointestinal tract, and at the ampulla of Vater location, are extremely uncommon. They are also called spindle cell carcinomas or sarcomatoid carcinomas. These tumors have an aggressive clinical course with frequent metastasis. We report the case of a male patient of 64 y.o with anemia and jaundice, and a diagnosis of carcinosarcoma of the ampulla of Vater.
