Abstract

Solid Pseudopapilary Neoplasm (SPN) are rare tumors usually appearing in young females. Presentations beyond 40 are rare. We describe the case of a 52 years old patient with persistent abdominal pain diagnosed with an SPN of the uncinated pancreatic process. The diagnostic between SPN and neuroendocrine tumor (NET) was challenging.
