| description | Background. Solid-pseudopapillary tumors of the pancreas (SPT) is a very rare lesion. We presented the clinical and pathological characteristics of this tumor and reviewed the literature. Case report. We analyzed the treatment of the two female patients, aged 21 and 37 years, with this tumor. The first female patient had the tumor without involvement of the surrounding organs. The second female patient had the tumor with a high grade of malignancy which invaded blood vessels. We performed in both patients splenohemipancreatectomy, and then we reported the pathological characteristics of the tumors. We didn't find recidive in the observed postoperative follow-up of 4, and 6 years, respectively. Conclusion. SPT is a rare tumor of the pancreas that is diagnosed primarily in young women. The prognosis after surgical treatment was excellent. The histopathological analysis is the main procedure in establishing diagnosis, regardless the most recent diagnostic procedures. |
