“…Post-1-year follow-up patient is doing well, with no signs of tumor recurrence locally and distance. Immunohistochemically, SPPT is typically positive for vimentin (Vim), a-1-antitrypsin (AAT), a-1-antichymotrypsin (AACT), and neuron-specific enolase (NSE) (14,15) which is consistent with the finding. However, the unique immunohistochemical features with an expression of CD56 and CD10 have not reached an agreement in a recent study (15).…”

Introduction: Solid pseudopapillary pancreatic tumor (Frantz’s Tumor) is a low-grade malignancy, that lacks clinical symptomatology. It was treatable with a favorable prognosis. Case presentation: A young female patient presented with increasing abdominal pain three years ago. Abdominal examination revealed a lump palpable. Contrast-enhanced Computed Tomography abdomen reported a solid mass measuring 13.9 cm x 13.2 cm x 8.9 cm from the pancreas with an enhancing cystic component. Fine-needle aspiration biopsy yielded a cellular sample comprising pseudopapillary neoplasm of the pancreas. A distal pancreatectomy was performed; she was discharged in satisfactory condition.

Solid pseudopapillary epithelial neoplasms of the pancreas are rare entities, first described in 1959 by Frantz. These tumors represent less than 2% of pancreatic cancers and mainly affect young women. They can reach a significant size and its radiological features can lead to diagnostic pitfalls, such as gastrointestinal stromal tumors, which are rare soft-tissue sarcomas that can appear anywhere along the gastrointestinal tract. Clinicians and radiologists need to be aware of the existing diagnostic pitfalls between these two entities, because of their possible similarities. We report here the case of a 33-year-old woman with a solid pseudopapillary epithelial neoplasms of the pancreas initially misdiagnosed as an exophytic gastric stromal tumor.
