Abstract:
Our case highlights a rare instance of recurrent metastatic solid pseudopapillary epithelial neoplasms of the pancreas, emerging 8 years after radical pancreatic resection-an extended interval surpassing the reported average. Managing solid pseudopapillary epithelial neoplasm during pregnancy is uniquely challenging, given the increase in the expression of progesterone receptors during the intrapartum period, leading to tumor growth. Although surgical resection remains the primary approach, systemic chemotherapy, radiation therapy, and liver transplant are other considerations. The absence of consensus guidelines for recurrence monitoring emphasizes the need for vigilant, long-term surveillance extending beyond the conventional 5-year mark.
