Abstract
Solid and papillary epithelial neoplasm (SPEN) of the pancreas is a rare tumor with low malignant potentiality that usually occurs in young females. Preoperative evaluation, especially radiologic tests, including ultrasonography and CT scan, is helpful in the diagnosis. These studies demonstrate a well-demarcated large mass with solid and cystic portions, frequently in the tail or body of the pancreas. Complete resection is usually curative, however local invasion and/or metastasis may occur. The authors report a case of a solid and papillary epithelial neoplasm of the pancreatic body in a 14-year old child at St. Benedict Hospital and review the literature.
