Solid pseudopapillary tumour of the pancreas is a rare lesion with low malignant potential occurring predominantly in young women. This is a report of an extremely rare occurrence of synchronous presentation of pseudopapillary tumour in the pancreatic head and tail of a 16-year-old female patient.
The patient presented with a three-month intermittent upper abdominal pain and swelling. Computed tomography scan showed two separate masses, involving the pancreatic head and tail. The patient underwent surgery, where successful tumour enucleation of both tumours was performed. Histological report confirmed solid pseudopapillary tumour of the pancreas with the low malignant potential.
To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of synchronous presentation of pseudopapillary tumour of the pancreas.
胰腺实性假乳头状瘤是一种罕见的病变,恶性潜能较低,主要发生于年轻女性。本文报道了一名16岁女性患者胰腺头部和尾部同时出现假乳头状瘤这一极其罕见的病例。
该患者出现间歇性上腹部疼痛和肿胀3个月。计算机断层扫描显示两个独立的肿块,分别累及胰腺头部和尾部。患者接受了手术,成功地将两个肿瘤摘除。组织学报告证实为胰腺实性假乳头状瘤,恶性潜能较低。
据我们所知,这是胰腺假乳头状瘤同时出现的首例报道。
