“…Radiologic studies are important in the preoperative evaluation. Abdominal roentgenograms may demonstrate displacement of the stomach, colon, or spleen by an extrinsic mass [32]. Calcification within the large mass is seldom encountered.…”

“…However, longterm reports in the literature on young patients affected by SPN do not contribute very much to the evaluation of the recurrence rate and the potential curability of the tumour after surgery [17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26]. Standard therapy involves complete removal of the tumour, the involved pancreas and any adjacent organs [45,32,34]. Local invasion, recurrence, or limited metastases should not be considered as contraindications to resection.…”

“…These features are nevertheless nonspecific; the hemorrhagic content is, on the contrary, much more specific with MRI, being hyperintense on the Tl-weighted images and hypointense on the T2-weighted images [2,3,11]. Calcifications are fairly rare [2,3,8,10,14]; in our experience, they were identified in 1 case, with mixed pattern (Fig. 4).…”

-Background -Solid papillary-cystic pancreatic tumors have been recognized as a distinct neoplastic disease, whose incidence has increased in recent years with advancements in imaging technology. Case report -Woman 17-year-old consulted with a symptomatic giant homogeneous solid-cystic mass in the pancreatic tail, undergone a spleen preserving distal pancreatectomy, with excision of the splenic vessels. Histopathology revealed epithelium-lined pseudopapillary protrusions, without malignant change. The patient's postoperative course was uneventful. ConclusionSolid papillary-cystic pancreatic tumor has uncommon incidence and silent presentation, a high degree of suspicion on the part of the surgeon is warranted. In early diagnosis, complete resection is curative. The spleen should be preserved, if feasible.RESUMO -Introdução -Tumores sólido-cístico papilares têm sido reconhecidos como uma doença neoplásica distinta, cuja incidência tem aumentado atualmente em decorrências dos avanços em imaginologia. Relato do caso -Mulher de 17 anos, procurou atendimento médico em virtude de uma massa homogênea sólido-cística em cauda pancreática, e foi submetida a pancreatectomia distal com preservação do baço, apesar da excisão dos vasos esplênicos. Avaliação histológica revelou protrusões pseudopapilares revestidas de epitélio, sem degeneração maligna. A evolução clínica pós-operatória ocorreu sem complicações. Conclusão -Estes tumores têm que ser reconhecidos pelos clínicos, patologistas e radiologistas, e cirurgicamente ressecados com preservação do baço, conquanto apresentam prognóstico favorável.
