Primary lymphoma of the small bowel resulting in pancreatic duct or biliary obstruction is rare. Only 1 case of pancreatic obstruction causing pancreatitis has previously been reported. A patient with primary small-bowel lymphoma of the 'Western' variety is described. This was associated with extensive duodenal involvement and obstruction of the pancreatic and biliary system accompanied by obstructive jaundice and pancreatitis.
