title: Solid pseudopapillary tumor of the pancreas in a child: imaging findings with diffusion-weighted MR imaging.
abstract: BACKGROUND
  Solid pseudopapillary tumor of the pancreas is a rare tumor more common in young girls and rare in males.
  
  
  METHODS
  We present a case of a solid pseudopapillary tumor of the pancreas in a 13-year-old boy, with typical imaging features.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  Our case report specifically illustrates the potential of diffusion-weighted imaging findings on solid pseudopapillary tumor in pediatric patients.
