    The purpose of reporting this case is to raise the awareness of the rapid worsening clinical presentation of acute pancreatitis in an older patient, unexpected encounter with pancreatic lymphoma, and sarcoidosis-lymphoma syndrome. An 80-year-old woman was diagnosed with sarcoidosis 16 years ago. Following recent hospitalization because of acute pancreatitis, non-obstructive and non-invasive pancreatic mass was found on radiological images. Histopathology confirmed the mass to be diffuse large B-cell lymphoma. We report this case because of its complicated the etiology of acute pancreatitis in an older patient, presentation of pancreatic lymphoma, and immune pathogenesis of sarcoidosis-lymphoma syndrome.
