Malignant cutaneous melanomas are skin tumours with a worse prognosis. Presence of metastasis is an indicator of a very aggressive nature of melanoma. Though it can be rarely seen as a primary tumour of the gastrointestinal system, it is among the most frequently observed metastatic tumor of the gastrointestinal system. Since isolated pancreatic metastasis is rarely seen, limited information is available in the literature. In some publications, resection of isolated pancreatic metastasis has been suggestively associated with prolonged life expectancy of the patients. In our manuscript, we will present a very rarely seen case of malignant skin melanoma with isolated pancreatic metastasis.
