'''Solid pseudopapillary tumour''' is a [[pancreas|pancreatic]] tumour that is usually found in the tail. | |||
It is also known as '''solid pseudopapillary neoplasm''' (abbreviation '''SPN''') and '''solid and papillary epithelial neoplasm''' (abbreviated '''SPEN''').<ref>URL: [http://brighamrad.harvard.edu/Cases/bwh/hcache/360/full.html http://brighamrad.harvard.edu/Cases/bwh/hcache/360/full.html].

==General== | |||
*Obscure cell of origin. | |||
*Considered low grade, i.e. prognosis is usually good. | |||
===Epidemiology=== | |||
Features:<ref name=Ref_GLP493>{{Ref GLP|493}}</ref> | |||
*Usually females (M:F=1:9). | |||
*Mean age of presentation third decade (20s). | |||
===Management=== | |||
May be followed radiologically. | |||

Solid-pseudopapillary neoplasm of pancreas. A. Tumor with prominent blood vessels and small cyst like spaces contrasts with normal pancreatic acini at right. B. Cohesive cell population. C. More dishesive cell population. D. Vascular pseudopapillae with hyalinized stroma. E. Aggregates of variably sized hyaline globules. Arrow points to longitudinal nuclear groove. F. Sometimes, as here, the cells show varied nuclear sizes and shapes. The cytoplasm, lightly eosinophilic to cleared, can have vacuoles (arrows). | |||
