Solid pseudopapillary neoplasm of the pancreas: a single institution experience of 14 cases

“…These tumours occur more often in young women mostly in the second and third decades of life although have been reported in men and are evenly distributed throughout the pancreas [7] [18]- [20]. They are usually large well encapsulated tumours sharply demarcated from the pancreatic tissues and have a mixture of solid and cystic components with a papillary pattern [18] [19].
