[A solid-pseudopapillary tumors of the pancreas].
The review presents an update of solid-pseudopapillary pancreatic tumors, a rare and inadequately studied type of tumors that are predominantly encountered in girls and young women. It discusses the problems in the diagnosis based on the histological and imunophenotypical uniqueness of these tumors, which allows them to be differentiated from other types of pancreatic tumors with a less favorable prognosis. The correct diagnosis of a solid-pseudopapillary tumor determines the management tactic that requires no radiation or chemotherapy in the vast majority.
