Solid and cystic tumor of the pancreas--case report.
Pancreatic tumors are rarely present in childhood. The authors present a case of papillary-cystic tumor in a 13-year-old girl, treated by partial pancreatoduodenectomy, with preservation of the pylorus. The histologic pattern was of a papillary cystic tumor without evident atypical nuclei. One year after operation, the girl is well without any finding of disease.
