Solid Pseudopapillary Neoplasm of Pancreas, Presentation and Management of a Rare Case
View through CrossRef
Solid Pseudopapillary Neoplasm (SPN) of the pancreas is a rare neoplasm that typically affects young females. It is a low-grade malignant tumor which is quite commonly misdiagnosed as pancreatic pseudo-cyst. We report a case of SPN in a young female who presented with epigastric pain. Computerized Tomographic (CT) scan of pancreas revealed well demarcated lesion in the head of pancreas. She underwent Whipple procedure. Histopathology confirmed the diagnosis. She did not need any further treatment.
