Rare solid pseudopapillary neoplasm in a Caucasian man

Abstract

Pancreatic pseudopapillary neoplasms are rare pancreatic tumors and have a female predominance. Clinical manifestations include abdominal pain and/or an abdominal mass. Some patients are asymptomatic, and the tumors are found incidentally on imaging. Endoscopic ultrasound with fine needle biopsy with pathological tissue remains the gold standard for diagnosis. The malignant potential is low, and surgery remains the standard treatment.
