Abstract

Solid-pseudopapillary neoplasm (SPN) of the pancreas is most commonly found in young females, and is relatively rare in males.<BR>We report a case of SPN of the pancreas in a 45-year-old man. An 85-mm tumor with calcified capsule was identified in the pancreatic tail on abdominal CT in a medical examination. MRI revealed a high-intensity mass on T1-weighted images, and high- and low-intensity parts on T2 weighted images. We diagnosed SPN and performed distal pancreatectomy. Histological diagnosis showed SPN that had invaded the capsule and surrounding fat tissue.<BR>The patient is doing well, and has shown no sign of recurrence as of 2 years and 3 months postoperatively.
