A case of undifferentiated pancreatic carcinoma is described. The first symptoms were due to brain metastases and was then diagnosed as malignant glioma. The appearance of a sudden obstructive jaundice and pneumoperitoneum without any apparent cause led to the diagnosis of undifferentiated pancreatic carcinoma and peritoneal carcinomatosis, that was confirmed by the anatomicopathological study.
