Abstract :

Solid pseudopapillary neoplasm (SPN) is a rare exocrine tumour of the pancreas that has an indolent course, though around 15% cases exhibit a definite malignant potential with distant metastasis. It is predominantly seen in young non–Caucasian women between second and third decades. It is imperative to accurately diagnose SPNso that appropriate management can be initiated. We report a case of a 20 year old Indian female who presented with epigastric pain and lump for a year. Laboratory data were unremarkable. The diagnosis was made on imaging and confirmed post–operatively on histopathology
