Abstract

Solid pseudopapillary tumors of the pancreas are very rare, low-grade malignant potentially curable neoplasms. Despite having non-specific symptomatology, they have typical features such as being more common in young women, and classically presenting as large abdominal masses. Accurate diagnosis is important because long-term survival hinges on complete resection of the tumor.
