title: Successful control of liver metastases from pancreatic solid-pseudopapillary neoplasm (SPN) using hepatic arterial embolization.
abstract: No systemic agents that are known to be effective for the treatment of solid-pseudopapillary neoplasm (SPN) are available. We report the prolonged and sustained control of metastatic pancreatic SPN to the liver using hepatic arterial embolization (HAE), where a total of 13 HAE sessions were performed over a 6-year period.
