Distal pancreatectomy with spleen preservation in a pseudopapillary pancreatic tumor case
Pseudopapillary pancreatic tumors represent about 1-2% of all exocrine pancreatic tumors, studies in the literature about this type of tumor is limited. We present a female patient of 18 years hospitalized for nonspecific abdominal symptoms, diagnosed with corporeal pancreatic tumor approximately 3-4 cm. It takes practice surgical distal pancreatectomy with spleen preservation, pathological examination revealing a pseudopapillary pancreatic tumor. Postoperative evolution was favorable. Distal pancreatectomy with spleen preservation was indicated due to patient age.
