The type of cystic lesions was intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm (IPMN; n = 35), serous cystadenoma (n = 18), mucinous cystic neoplasm (MCN; n = 12), solid pseudopapillary epithelial neoplasm (SPEN; n = 9), cystic degeneration of other tumors (n = 4), simple cyst (n = 4), infec...

CONTEXT Solid pseudopapillary tumor of the pancreas is a rare tumor more common in young girls and rare in males. CASE REPORT We present a case of a solid pseudopapillary tumor of the pancreas in a 13-year-old boy, with typical imaging features. CONCLUSIONS Our case report specifically illustrates the potential of diffusion-weighted imaging findings on solid pseudopapillary tumor in pediatr...

BACKGROUND Its considerable size at the time of diagnosis and low grade of malignancy are typical features of the solid-pseudopapillary tumor, which has a tendency to predominantly affect young females. A relationship to the long-term intake of oral contraceptives is discussed. Invasive tumor growth or metastases have been observed only rarely until now. METHODS The 53-yr-old female patient w...

A solid pseudopapillary neoplasm is a rare pancreatic tumor accounting for 1-2% of exocrine pancreatic neoplasms. It is usually asymptomatic and discovered incidentally. It is mainly seen in young women between the second and third decades of life. Although it usually has a large size at the time of diagnosis, it is considered to have low malignant potential. Solid pseudopapillary tumors (SPTs)...
