Solid pseudopapillary neoplasm in a woman presenting with acute pancreatitis: a case report and review of literature

Solid pseudopapillary neoplasm (SPN) is a rare pancreatic tumor that typically affects young women in the body and tail of the pancreas. SPN is often asymptomatic in the early stages, so it is initially discovered as a large tumor. In this report, we experienced a case of a relatively small SPN discovered in the setting of acute pancreatitis. Because there have been few reports of SPN being discovered in the situation like our case, we report this case based on a review of the literature.
