Background: The solid pseudopapillary neoplasm is a rare tumor of the pancreas. However, it´s etiology still maintain discussions. Aim: To analyze it´s clinical data, diagnosis and treatment. Methods: A retrospective study of medical records of all patients treated from January 1997 until July 2015. Results: Were identified 17 cases. Most patients were women (94.11%) and the average age was 32.88 years. The main complaint was abdominal mass (47.05%). The most frequent location was in the body/tail of the pancreas (72.22%) and the most frequently performed surgery was distal pancreatectomy with splenectomy (64.70%). No patient had metastases at diagnosis. Conservative surgery for pancreatic parenchyma was performed in only three cases. The rate of complications in the postoperative period was 35.29% and the main complication was pancreatic fistula (29.41%). No patient underwent adjuvant treatment. Conclusions: The treatment is surgical and the most common clinical presentation is abdominal mass. Distal pancreatectomy with splenectomy was the most frequently performed surgery for its treatment.

“…Variable amount of mucinous changes can be seen within the core. 7,8 The frequently seen hyaline globules as seen in this case are known to be PAS + diastase resistant. Pseudopapillary pattern is exhibited because of tumor cells degrading and moving away from the blood vessels that look like rosettes.…”

Solid Pseudopapillary tumor (SPT) is a tumor with low malignant potential and comprises around 1-2% of all tumors occurring in Pancreas. Pseudocyst of Pancreas, Microcystic adenoma, neuroendocrine tumor and mucinous cystic neoplasm are considered as challenging differentials of SPT. High suspicion followed by accurate diagnosis is key to management because SPT is known for its good prognosis and successive cure rate on surgical resection. 21-year-old female patient presented with complaints of abdominal pain and dyspnoea. Imaging studies revealed a retroperitoneal tumor. Surgical resection carried out. Gross examination of the specimen showed circumscribed lobular brown mass weighing around 468 gm with a measurement of 15x12x10 cm. On sectioning, the tumor had a variegated appearance containing multiple cysts varying from 1 - 3 cm in size. Microscopic examination revealed an encapsulated cellular neoplasm with individual tumor cells arranged in solid, pseudopapillae and cystic patterns. Tumor cells were round to oval with no distinct nucleoli. Mitotic figures were very few in number. Hyaline globules were noted. Mucinous changes were seen focally. Occasional areas exhibited clear cell change of tumor cells. Cystic areas were filled with heamorrhage. Vascular areas were unremarkable. Normal Pancreatic parenchyma was noted at the tumor edge. Morphology of SPTs are varied ranging from solid to cystic appearance. No definitive morphology is identified to differentiate benign from malignant SPT. SPT are known to mimic a wide range of pancreatic and retroperitoneal lesions that may pose a challenge to diagnostic pathologists as seen in this case.

“…A ressecção completa do tumor continua a ser a base para o tratamento curativo. O procedimento cirúrgico controla os sintomas e a progressão desta rara condição [16]. Foi realizado o procedimento de pancreatectomia corpo-caudal para ressecção do tumor, pois o tumor estava localizado no corpo e cauda do pâncreas, além da ausência de doença metastática nos órgãos adjacentes como fígado, pulmão, baço ou peritônio.…”

Resumo: Neoplasias pseudopapilares sólidas (NPS) do pâncreas são neoplasias raras, responsáveis por 1–2% de todos os tumores pancreáticos e têm uma predominância feminina em geral e são denominadas tumores de Frantz. O tratamento de escolha é a ressecção da lesão, uma vez que é frequentemente curativa. As características radiológicas são importantes para a hipótese diagnóstica, uma vez que o planejamento pré-operatório é fundamental para a obtenção da cura. O presente estudo tem como objetivo realizar um relato de caso com descrição da história clínica, do tratamento de um caso atípico de tumor de Frantz com apresentação clínico-radiológica rara, diagnosticado no Hospital Regional do Cariri. Para elaboração deste, foi realizada análise documental dos dados do prontuário do paciente. Palavras-chave: Tumor de Frantz; neoplasia pseudopapilares; neoplasia pancreática.
