Key Clinical Message:
The differential diagnoses of solid pseudopapillary neoplasm of the pancreas include cystic pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor, acinar cell carcinoma, and pancreatoblastoma.
Abstract:
Solid pseudopapillary neoplasm (SPN) is a low-grade malignant pancreatic tumor which accounts for 0.9%-2.7% of all exocrine pancreatic neoplasms. It predominantly affects young females (90%) and less frequently occurs in male patients. Its prognosis after surgical resection remains excellent. Herein, we report a case of SPN in a male patient.
