Abstract
Solid Pseudopapillary Tumors are rare pancreaticneoplasms first identified as Hammoudi or Franztumors, later classified by the WHO as SPTs in 1996.These tumors primarily affect young non-Caucasianwomen, with a male-to-female ratio of 1:11. Surgicalexcision remains the standard treatment. SolidPseudopapillary Tumors (SPTs) within the pancreasare rare, accounting for less than 3% of pancreaticneoplasms. They predominantly occur in youngwomen and are characterized by low malignantpotential with high surgical cure rates. This reportdetails the case of a 14-year-old girl in Bangladeshundergoing a successful Whipple’s procedure for anSPT.
